How can I use "Variables" in php, which are created by "str_replace" and "array"also in Javascript?

Question

I use in my HTML Markups always Underlines, which are programmed with PHP and will replaced by strings. For example:

<title>__TITLE__</title>

So in this way I have just one template of HTML but my pages although have their own title names.

But in one case I have a problem. I also use JQuery and I have this case:

$("div").append("<p>__NAME__</p>");

In this case there is the text "__NAME__" on my Homepage, not e.g. "John".

Can someone help?

You need to assign the PHP variables to JS variables, e.g. var __NAME__ = <?php echo json_encode($name); ?>;. Then you can use the variable __NAME__ in JavaScript. — Barmar

Is this jQuery code contained in yout HTML template, or is it in an external script? If it is the former - then where is your actual PHP code that does the replacing, show it. — C3roe

I think you're mixing up javascript from php. Can you show the full source code here? — Koala Yeung

You could add a placeholder div for it in your HTML:

<div id="template1" style="display:none">__NAME__</div>

Then in your code, pick up the contents of that element (which will have been altered by PHP):

$("div").append($("<p>").html($("#template1").html()));
