javascript and php

[PeejAvery]

No. The JavaScript file is interpreted on the client side. Therefore the PHP, being server-side, cannot read it.

If you need to access the variable using JavaScript, here is a function I just made up that should help you.

function retrieveURLVariable(name){
  var vURL = window.location.search.substr(1);
  var vParts = vURL.split(name + "=");
  vParts = vParts[1].split('&');
  return vParts[0];
}

var test = retrieveURLVariable('abc');
alert(test);
