How use php inside a jQuery file

Question

I've read about it but all the solutions doesn't help me. I've already added this to my .htaccess file:

<FilesMatch "\.(js)$">AddHandlerapplication/x-httpd-php .js</FilesMatch>.

That's my javascript code:

$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
      header: {
        left: 'prev,next',
        center: 'title',
        right: 'today'
      },
      defaultDate: "<?php echo $current ?>",
      editable: false,

But nothing appears then. I'd be grateful if anyone knows the solution.

@PatrickEvans that's not true when there's only one line of code — John Conde

Why you wanna use PHP here? Just go defaultDate: new Date(),. — connexo

@PatrickEvans Thats not my whole actual code, its just a part of it. $current has just been defined before. — Ismael Quirantes

@connexo Later I want to print values from my database but i want first to learn how to print a php variable to do it then — Ismael Quirantes

Can't you use a PHP file to produce the JS code? and then include it using <script src="./myscript.php"></script> — Spoody

I can suggest an alternative way to generate your JS code. By using a .php file, for example: myscript.php

// Set the header type to JS
header('Content-Type: text/javascript');

$value = 'Something here';

echo "alert('$value');";

and then just include it by using:

<script src="./myscript.php"></script>

Set $current to javascript variable in php file and then include this js file. page.php

<script type="text/javascript">
     var currentDate = <?php echo $current; ?>;
</script>

<script src="script.js"></script>

In script.js

$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
      header: {
        left: 'prev,next',
        center: 'title',
        right: 'today'
      },
      defaultDate: currentDate,
      editable: false
});

The complete solution is :

1- creating file :

<?php
header("Content-type: application/javascript");
?>
var abc=0;
<?php echo "var babc='xyz'"?>;

2- saving file by this format :

filename.js.php

3- adding rewrite rules to .htaccess

RewriteRule "^(.*)\.php\.js$" "$1.js.php" [NC,NE,L,QSA]

4-including .js file as :

<script src="filename.php.js"></script>

the file name format need to be unique to be determined by rewrite rule, in this example i used :

FileName.php.js  for client side
FileName.js.php  for server side
