Answer 1

What you are looking for is XMLHttpRequest , which enables to initiate HTTP requests from JavaScript code; don't pay attention to the misleading XML in the name.

All modern JavaScript libraries offer high-level functions to enhance the features of this function (eg jQuery.ajax ).

Answer 2

Try

  // 't' being the JS variable
   var t = <?php echo $json_string; ?>; 

You may want to use json_decode if you want the decoded string.

Answer 3

var response = <?php echo $json_echo; ?>;

Answer 4

this way you can pass php variable to JS

<script> 
     var json_js = <?php echo $json_php; ?>; 
</script>
