define javascript variable from php variable within php code - javascript

I am trying to define javascript variable from php variable in the running php code.
Here is my code:
echo "<script>";
echo "var s1 = '<?php echo isset($s1) ? $s1 : '' ?>';";
echo "getAirdrop();";
echo "</script>";
But this code not defining the javascript variable.

You don't need php tags again.
Try it like this:
echo "<script>";
echo "var s1 = '";
echo isset($s1) ? $s1 : '';
echo "';";
echo "getAirdrop();";
echo "</script>";

You can do it in one line, just concatenate all yours echo :
echo "<script> let s1 = ".isset($s1) ? $s1 : ''." getAirdrop(); </script>"

Pass PHP variable within echo <script> content

I am trying to pass $php_variable to JavaScript content in echo tag in one php file. It is because I hope to append the query value from old_page_url to new_page_url by using window.location.
For example,
http://example/?data=1234 to http://example/something-else/1234
My code snippet:
<?php
$php_variable = "testing";
echo "<script>";
echo "var toURL = 'http://example.com/something-else/'";
echo "window.location = toURL + $php_variable";
echo "</script>";
I have tried:
<?php
$php_variable = "testing";
echo "<script>";
echo "var toURL = 'http://example.com/something-else/'";
echo "window.location = toURL + json_decode($php_variable)";
echo "</script>";
and
<?php
$php_variable = "testing";
echo "<script>";
echo "var toURL = 'http://example.com/something-else/'";
echo "window.location = toURL + <?php echo $php_variable; ?>";
echo "</script>";
But these two don't work. Any idea?
Update: Final Code Snippet
<?php
$php_variable = "testing";
$toURL = "http://example.com/something-else";
echo "<script>";
echo "window.location = '$toURL/$php_variable'";
echo "</script>";
echo "window.location = 'http://example.com/something-else/$php_variable'";
How about this
<?php
$php_variable = "testing";
echo "<script>";
echo "var toURL = 'http://example.com/something-else/'";
echo "window.location = toURL +" . "'{$php_variable}'";
echo "</script>";

how to pass php variable to javascript?

I am using following code to pass PHP variables to javascript. but it is not working.
function gto(str) {
document.getElementById('goto').action = str;

}
Following is the PHP code
<?php
if($_POST["name"] == null)
{
$user_name = 'Annomyous';
}
else{
$user_name = $_POST["name"];
$userid= $_POST["id"];

I need to pass post variables to contact us so i am using the form tag and javascript but this is not working Please help me!
Thanks in Advance
values from php to js can be passed in many ways, here's one of them
try to pass the php values when calling the js function, like this:-
<button onclick="gto('Contact.php','<?php echo $userid;?>','<?php echo $username;?>');">Contact Us</button>
and then get values on js function like this:-
function gto(str,userid,username) {
document .getElementById('goto').action = str;
document.getElementById('ID').value = userid;
document.getElementById('name').value =username;
}
that's it, now use the values in js as your wish
Uh, found another issue. The js is in smart quotes, which won't work... "`" is invalid. use "'".
Also, w3schools can't handle php in their editor, so it's no use.
Example for POST requests: https://www.w3schools.com/code/tryit.asp?filename=FQSA8MJYGJ47
Hope this helps.

Passing javascript array via POST to PHP does not working

I need to pass a javascript array, via POST, to a PHP file.
I've tried to semplify my original business trying to explain my troubles ...
This is my first PHP file, in which I declare a javascript array and I set each element to 1 value (not a great business I know, but it doesn't matter, it's only to explain ....)
<?php
echo '<form action="testPhp-2.php" method="POST" target="testPhp-2">';
echo '<script type="text/javascript">';
echo 'var arr_selections = [];';
echo 'for(i=0; i < 10; i++)';
echo ' {';
echo ' arr_selections[i] = 1';
echo ' }';
echo 'arr_selections_json = JSON.stringify(arr_selections);';
echo 'alert (arr_selections[2]);';
echo 'document.write("<br/>");';
echo ' ';
// echo 'document.write("<input type="hidden" />");';
echo 'document.write("<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"arr_selections_json\" value=\"arr_selections_json\" />");';
echo ' ';
echo '</script>';
echo ' <input type="submit" value="Controlla">';
echo ' </form>';
?>
.... and here you are the code of testPhp-2 file ...
<?php
if(isset($_POST['arr_selections_json']))
{
echo "OK, array exist !! ";
echo '</br>';
echo '</br>';
$arr_selections = json_decode($_POST['arr_selections_json'], true);
echo $arr_selections[0];
}
else {
echo "NO; array does not exist !! ";
echo '</br>';
echo '</br>';
}
?>
Now, if you try to execute the code you'll see the OK, array exist !! message but no array value is printed about the echo $arr_selections[0]; line of code in testPhp-2.php file.
Any suggestion will be appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Problem is that you're setting the value of the input to the litteral string "arr_selections_json" instead of to the contents of that variable.
Change
echo 'document.write("... value=\"arr_selections_json\" />");';
To
echo 'document.write("... value=\""+arr_selections_json+"\" />");';

Referencing a defined html variable in JS

My index.php page includes a config.php file, which returns an array that I have defined some variables in by using "define('var1' , 10)".
I am trying to validate my forms input, but I can't figure out how I can reference var1 from within the JS function. What is the easiest way to do this?
Just echo it to a javascript variable:
<script type="text/javascript">
var var1JS = "<?php echo $var1; ?>";
</script>
Not quite sure I am full understanding without seeing the code but, you could echo the variable from the PHP array in the JS function (as above answer).
Or Echo the entire JS query:
$y = count($PHPdata_array);
echo "function exampleFunction() {";
echo "var ArrayName = [";
for ($i = 1; $i <= $y; $i+=2) {
echo "{" . $PHPdata_array[$i] . "," . $PHPdata_array[$i-1] . "},";
}
echo "];";

How to retrieve $_SESSION value in a JavaScript/HTML

I have this working script yet when I change it to retrieve(supposedly) the value inside $_SESSION["username"], it doesn't retrieve anything. The whole page is saved as .php as I am using some codes that uses PHP.
Code:
echo "<script type=text/javascript>";
echo "var hidden = false;";
echo "function actiondb1() {";
echo "if(!hidden) {";
echo "document.getElementById(\'clickdb1\').style.visibility = \'hidden\';";
echo "document.getElementById(\'db1\').style.visibility = \'visible\';";
echo "document.getElementById(\'db1\').disabled = false;";
echo "document.getElementById(\'db1\').value =".$_SESSION["username"];.";";
echo "}";
echo "}";
echo "</script>";
How can I make the script to properly retrieve the data inside $_SESSION["username"];?
Observe that, for instance, if the value of $_SESSION["username"] is John, your echo will be generating this result:
document.getElementById('db1').value = John;
But John is supposed to be a string and should be wrapped in quotation marks, otherwise JavaScript will understand it as a variable name (which value will be probably undefined).
As Havenard mentioned, this line is missing Javascript single quotes to properly denote a string variable:
echo "document.getElementById(\'db1\').value ='".$_SESSION["username"];."';";
However, you really shouldn't print JS out with PHP if you can help it. Though iatboy's answer answer won't ultimately fix your bug, it is a much cleaner way of doing things.
?>
<script type=text/javascript>;
var hidden = false;
function actiondb1() {
if(!hidden) {
document.getElementById('clickdb1').style.visibility = 'hidden';
document.getElementById('db1').style.visibility = 'visible';
document.getElementById('db1').disabled = false;
document.getElementById('db1').value ='<?php echo $_SESSION["username"];?>';
}
}
</script>;
<?php
Did you start session in this page?If you didn't,use the follow code to start session.
session_start();
Then change your code to
echo "<script type=text/javascript>";
echo "var hidden = false;\n";
echo "function actiondb1() {\n";
echo "alert('".$_SESSION['username']."')\n"; //test code
echo "if(!hidden) {\n";
echo "document.getElementById('clickdb1').style.visibility = 'hidden';\n";
echo "document.getElementById('db1').style.visibility = 'visible';\n";
echo "document.getElementById('db1').disabled = false;\n";
echo "document.getElementById('db1').value ='".$_SESSION["username"]."';\n";
echo "}\n";
echo "}\n";
echo "</script>";
it will be ok.
