using a third party created form in my app

John, thanks for the help. I have a html file that I created with JotForm and renamed it as a .php file. I load it with load_view() and it is beautiful! Perfect. The only problem is that there are a bunch of radio buttons on it that I need create my own text for (and maybe add an additional button for). So I guess I could use the DOM. But I see that CI also has the form helper that will allow me to create a radio button in php. That is good because the text for these radio buttons is coming from a mySQL table. Can I just use the form_radio to add radio buttons to the existing html (now a php) file?

The question is "how to pass data between php and javascript without using XMLHttpRequest()" ?
