Passing values from PHP to javascript

Seen in stackoverflow:



What is the easiest way to encode a PHP string for output to a Javascript variable?

I have a PHP string which includes quotes and newlines. I need the contents of this string to be put into a Javascript variable.

Normally, I would just construct my Javascript in a PHP file, ala:

var myvar = "";


However, this doesn't work when $myVarValue contains quotes or newlines.



Expanding on someone else's answer:



This does require PHP 5.2.0 or greater.

Removing html tags in a php string

strip_tags

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

strip_tags — Strip HTML and PHP tags from a string

Report a bug

Description

string strip_tags ( string $str [, string $allowable_tags ] )

This function tries to return a string with all NUL bytes, HTML and PHP tags stripped from a given str. It uses the same tag stripping state machine as the fgetss() function.

Report a bug

Parameters

str

The input string.

allowable_tags

You can use the optional second parameter to specify tags which should not be stripped.

Note:

HTML comments and PHP tags are also stripped. This is hardcoded and can not be changed with allowable_tags.

Note:

This parameter should not contain whitespace. strip_tags() sees a tag as a case-insensitive string between < and the first whitespace or >. It means that strip_tags(" ", " ") returns an empty string.

Return Values

Returns the stripped string.

Changelog

Examples

Example #1 strip_tags() example

$text = 'Test paragraph.
 Other text';
echo strip_tags($text);
echo "\n";
// Allow  and 
echo strip_tags($text, '');?>

The above example will output:

Test paragraph. Other textTest paragraph.
 Other text

Report a bug

Notes

Warning

Because strip_tags() does not actually validate the HTML, partial or broken tags can result in the removal of more text/data than expected.

Warning

This function does not modify any attributes on the tags that you allow using allowable_tags, including the style and onmouseover attributes that a mischievous user may abuse when posting text that will be shown to other users.
