How to put php variable inside php variable with a javascript value

Question

I need to put php variable inside php variable with javascript value, here is some of my codes that I tried but doesnt work (its file is in .php):

$rowEmail = "EmailTest";

$script = "<script type='text/javascript'>$('#reminderModal').modal('toggle'); console.log('"echo $rowEmail;"');</script>";

$script = "<script type='text/javascript'>$('#reminderModal').modal('toggle'); console.log('".echo $rowEmail."');</script>";

$script = "<script type='text/javascript'>$('#reminderModal').modal('toggle'); console.log('".$rowEmail."');</script>";

Answer 1

$script = "<script type='text/javascript'>$('#reminderModal').modal('toggle'); console.log('" . $rowEmail . "');</script>";

You don't need the echos, just concatanate the string.

If it is not a must for the love of what's good in this world do not store tags in variables like that. Makes it incredibly hard to read and debug later on.

Answer 2

You have some misunderstanding on how to output data via PHP. Need something like:

$rowEmail = "EmailTest";

$script = "<script type='text/javascript'>console.log('". $rowEmail ."');</script>";
echo $script;

Answer 3

I don't like this way of mixing things. But if I had to I would do:

<?php
//some php content
$rowEmail = "EmailTest";
?>

<script type="text/javascript">$("#reminderModal").modal("toggle"); console.log("<?=$rowEmail;?>");</script>

You can read also about short-hand tags <?=$var;?> here

Answer 4

Your last line is correct I don't know you why say it doesn't work, I've tried it and it works :

<?php
$rowEmail = "EmailTest";
$script = "<script type='text/javascript'>$('#reminderModal').modal('toggle'); console.log('".$rowEmail."');</script>";

echo $script;
// displays <script type='text/javascript'>$('#reminderModal').modal('toggle'); console.log('EmailTest');</script>
