you can dynamically create Javascript with PHP..i'm not sure if it's what you mean, but you can do something like:

//JS function
function myfunction()
{
url = "<?php echo $url; ?>"
}

You can't pass the actual variables from php running on the server to javascript running on the clients browser. What you can do, is have ajax request the php page, have php print the variables in some format (such as xml), and then have the javascript parse the xml and load it into its own arrays.

Javascript has very good support for parsing XML. From http://javascript.ab...ry/blajax12.htm

For example if we are exmecting a number of entries inside <price> </price> tags in the XML then we can extract them into a Javascript array using:

var xmlDoc = request.responseXML;
var priceArray = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName('price');
