Is it okay to use PHP inside a jQuery script?

Question

For example:

$(document).ready(function(){
    $(\'.selector\').click(function(){
        
    });
});
         


        

Answer 1

you have a better choice to use ajax that runs the php script when you are handling a click event

$(document).ready(function(){
    $('.selector').click(function(){
       $.ajax({url:"phpfile.php",type:"POST",
data:"datastring="+value+"&datastring2="othervalue,

,success:function(data){
//get the result from the php file after it's executed on server
}

});
    });
});
