php in javascript

[juicy]

I have create a checkbox,call getS function in onclick event. I append
value of variable output with value $text. It works well but when I
changed value of $text to a paragraph of text, it will occur error on the
page. Please advise. Thanks.

<script language = "javascript">
<?php $text = "testing"; ?>

function getS (id){
var output = "";
if (document.getElementById("id").checked)
{
output = output + <? echo $text; ?> ;
}}
</script>

You need to learn about the request resonse model. php is run to
produce html(& javascript) which is then sent to the browser. The
broser then runs the html (& javascript). So your code will be
delivered to the browser as

<script language = "javascript">

function getS (id){
var output = "";
if (document.getElementById("id").checked)
{
output = output + testing ; // <- error testing is not a variable.
}}

</script>

}}
</script>

Sorry, I have mistype the code, it should be

output = output + "<? echo $text; ?>";

if I assign $text a short text, it will OK. But if $text is a paragraph/
multiple line of string, it will occur error on the page.

Please give idea on what has happen..
Thanks.

You need to have valid javascript code, which is not happening when you
have several lines in text. You want to get to
output +="Line1\nLine2\nLine3\n"; // += is the same as a=a+
so
<? function jsencode($str)
{
return implode('\n',explode("\n",$str)); //Could use str_replace -
probably better.
}?>

output+="<? echo jsencode($text); ?>";

Looks like a javascript problem to me. Try a javascript newsgroup.

But why if I pass the paragraph of text from onclick event on a checkbox,
to show it on textarea, it can perform well although the text is a
paragraph.

<td ><input type=checkbox name="chksur2"
onclick="getSurcharge('duties',this.value)" value="<? echo $strSurcharge1;
?>">

<script language="JavaScript">
function getSurcharge(id, value)
{
document.getElementById(id).value= value;
//to show text on a textarea
}
</script>

<?php $strSurcharge1 = " (paragraph of text) ";
?>
