Possible Duplicate:
Pass a PHP string to a Javascript variable (including escaping newlines)

So I’m wondering if it’s possible to access the data in a php variable, in a jquery/javascript script. Say I have a wordpress query/loop, that brings up a particular post from the database.

Then if I store that post in a php variable, is there any way I could reference that variable/post from within a javascript/script?

    Yes. You can.

    Scenario: 1 If HTML and PHP are in seperate files

     HTML 
<html>
 <head>
  <script type='text/javascript' src='code.php' runat='server'></script>
  <script>
     // you can get phpVar here
     alert(phpVar);
  </script>
  </head>
 <body>
 </body>
</html>

 code.php 

 <?php
    $value =" Value from PHP";
    echo "var phpVar = '". $value ."'";
  ?>

    Scenario: 2 If HTML and PHP are in same file

     <?php $value =" Value from PHP"; ?>
   <html>
     <head>
       <script>
         <?php echo "var phpVar ='" . $value ."'"; ?>
          alert(phpVar);
       </script>
      </head>
     <body>
     </body>
     </html>
