I can put php code anywhere in my php file, but if i put the php code within the tags it simply will not work.... What am I doing wrong?
<html>
<head>
<?php
$hello3 = 'hello3';
echo 'hello1';
?>
<script>
<?php echo 'hello2'; ?>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#target").click(function(){
alert('hello');
});
});
</script>
<?php echo $hello3; ?>
</head>
<body>
<button type="button" id="target">Press Me</button>
</body>
</html>
when I execute this page I get this displayed on my screen:
hello1hello3 (then the button)
the echo within the script tags will not execute... at all.
