I can access a PHP var with Javascript like this:
<?php
$fruit = "apple";
$color = "red";
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
alert("fruit: " + "<?php echo $fruit; ?>"); // or shortcut "<?= $fruit ?>"
</script>
But what if I want to use an external JS file:
<script type="text/javascript" src="externaljs.js"></script>
externaljs.js:
alert("color: " + "<?php echo $color; ?>");
