6can't be done. because one runs at server and other is on browser. what you can do is either post a form or use ajax.Jai– Jai2015-11-02 09:45:22 +00:00Commented Nov 2, 2015 at 9:45

The restriction is that you are assigning a value from frontend to backend and this can't be done because php runs at server side while js/jquery runs in the browser.
If you are using ajax then you can use the posted value as:
<?php
$phpvariable = $_REQUEST['jqueryvariable'];
?>
Assume this is the posted data in the ajax:
data:{ jqueryvariable:"theDummyVar" }
or without ajax:
use a <input type="hidden" name="jqueryvariable" value="theDummyVar" /> and post it to the php. This needs to be in the form element.
Why do you need to refer a jquery variable into phpvar? You can just pass the jquery variable via ajax post or you can do it this way.
<?php
$phpvariable = $_POST['textfieldId'];
?>

i think it should be textfieldname not ID

If you are not using Ajax the code above should work. As per Jai, you cannot directly relate the variables of front-end to backend.

@n00bster perhaps you want to change this
() to [].
