Question

I am trying to pass a value from php to javascript. I understand one is server side and one is client side. I believe what I am doing should work fine:

PHP Code:

        echo "<script type = 'javascript/text'>var x = " . -119 . ";";
        echo "var y = " . 49 . ";";
        echo "</script>";

Javascript Code:

z = [ x, y ]

But I get the error x and y are undefined.

Answer 1

<script type = 'text/javascript'>
var x = <?php echo($x); ?>
var y = <?php echo($y); ?>
</script>

Should work
