Passing a php value to javascript [duplicate]

Answer 1

Your type is wrong, it should be: text/javascript and not javascript/text

Answer 2

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

Should work

Answer 3

The type should be text/javascript.

Also, you'll need to be sure that this script snippet is executed before the code that assignes [x,y] to z.

Answer 4

Type is text/javascript, not javascript/text. Your browser is probably ignoring the unrecognized script type.

Also, make sure if you replace "-119" with a variable that you take care to prevent XSS attacks by ensuring your variable contains a number or properly escaping it.
