With the full BaBar data sample of 465 million BaBar pairs,
we observe the decays B+- ->phi(1020) K_1(1270)+- and B+- ->phi(1020) K_2*(1430)+-.
We measure the branching fractions (6.1+-1.6+-1.1)\times 10^{-6} and
(8.4+- 1.9+- 0.9)\times 10^{-6} and the fractions of longitudinal polarization
0.46(+0.12-0.13)(+0.03-0.07) and 0.80(+0.09-0.10)+-0.03, respectively.
We also report on the B+- ->phi K_0*(1430)+- decay branching
fraction of (7.0+-1.3+-0.9)\times10^{-6} and several parameters sensitive
to CP violation and interference in the above three decays.
Upper limits are placed on the B+- decay rates to final states with
phi and K_1(1400)+-, K*(1410)+-, K_2(1770)+-,or K_2(1820)+-.
Understanding the observed polarization pattern requires
amplitude contributions from an uncertain source.
