any php, js , PEAR expects here that can help me?

ok im makin a gmap website for a uni subject
its in PEAR templates
problem i can seem to access the php variable in my js script

in test.php
i got
$address= $_POST['address']; which gets it from input in prev page

connected to dat php page is a test.tpl file where all html and js is there
i tried this and all sort of methods
var myVar = "<?php echo $address; ?>";
alert(myVar);

but all it shows it <?php echo $address; ?> in the alert box

i need that address value so i can pinpoint it on a gmap by calling a function like dat

showAddress(<?php echo $address; ?>);return false;


any ideas how to resolve it?
thx

So you know, the current private messaging system here does not support attachments.

Something you could do is try wrapping the code inside the code tag [code ] [/code ] (without the spaces).

Example.

yeah i did realised dat it doesnt support attachments also
oh as mite as well add the codes on my prev post if anyone can help me

any one can help me?

dw i solved my problem gmap works
