PHP code in JavaScript to get variable

When I press on any of the ‘region’ names in the list ('href' links), the matching list of 'cities' is showing underneath.

<?php while(has_list_regions()) { ?>
 <a href="javascript:show_region('<?php echo list_region_id() ?>');"></a>
<?php } ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
 function show_region(chosen_region_id) 
 {
 ; 
 $(this).slideDown(200);
 ;
 <?PHP $clicked_tag = 'chosen_region_id'; ?>
 }
</script>

Is it possible to include PHP code within a section of JavaScript? Because I need to get the ID of the selected ‘href’ that I clicked. I am trying to include the PHP code in the above JavaScript function but it doesn’t work.

  • You can include php in javascript when you are writing the script in the first place (to add php generated constants, etc) but once the page has finished generating the php side of things has done. The id created by '<?php echo list_region_id() ?>' is passed to the function as chosen_region_id so you already have it available. Commented Dec 9, 2012 at 3:51
  • I have a list of all regions’ ID from MySQL ‘region’ table. I don’t have the specific ID that I clicked. Commented Dec 9, 2012 at 4:03
