Javascript in PHP

Anon

Does anyone know if I can embedded Javascript in PHP code? I used echo "<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=...>......</SCRIPT>"; But there are \",; already existing between the tags. How could I solve the problem?

Thanks

because you are using echo to print the javascript, you can just escape all of the problem characters using \ or whatever.
Sometimes it may be better to use single quotes around the echo, as everything between them will not get parsed by php (just what you want) - although you will have to whatch out for single quotes in the javascript - you could do something like this:

echo '<script langauge="javascript">alert("something in here");</script>';

I'll show you something...

<?
$my_variable = "my_value";
echo "Hello !";
?>

Is the same thing than :
<?
$my_variable = "my_value";
?>
Hello !

It works in everything : while, for, if, etc.

Ex :
<?
$number = 1;
if($number == 0) {
?>
Number : 0
<?
} else {
?>
Number != 0
<?
}
?>

So you can use that method to echo your JavaScript...

<?
php code...
?>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGUE="JavaScript">

</SCRIPT>

But if you absolutely want to use echo, escape any " to \", any ' to \', any \ to \, any NULL to \NULL (I don't think you have to convert the last one.. !).

If you already have \" in your script => \\" (\ = \, \" = ", \ + " = \").

Hope it helped.

I suggest you to see http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.addslashes.php
