I’m struggling with calling a JS function firstLetterSearch() using PHP, and passing a variable $_POST['word'] to it. I can send an int as an argument but if I send this variable then it just shows up as {} when I log the value to the console.
function firstLetterSearch(firstLetter){
console.log('First letter search function called');
let abc = JSON.stringify(firstLetter);
console.log(abc);
if(firstLetter === 1){
console.log('I will select word starting with A');
} else if(firstLetter === 2){
console.log('I will select word starting with B');
}
}

fwrite($fp, $_POST['word']);

//When the button is pushed, the function will be called
if (isset($_POST['word'])) {
postword();
