Javascript - Pass number with zero to function

Question

I'm trying to pass a number with zeroes (cuz is form database) to a javascript function:

<table>

   <tr onClick="View(<?php echo $id; ?>)">
      <td> <?php echo $id; ?> </td>
   </tr>

</table>

Javascript function:

   function View(id){
    alert(id);
   }

For exm.: If my id is 0005, alert 5. If my id is 0006, alert 6.

I need to alert '0005' - '0006' but i can't solve this.

Thank you for answers

Change:

onClick="View(<?php echo $id; ?>)"

to

onClick="View('<?php echo $id; ?>')"

JavaScript is interpreting the value as a number so you need to tell it to use the value as a string by enclosing it in quotes.
