I have to disagree Ash, you can pass js variable values to PHP but

through a page load. Then you could use $_REQUEST, $_POST, $_GET to

it. I have done this before.
And I am sure Ash does it on daily basis, the problem is the used
therm: I want to *assign* ... not pass, assign!
I am quite sure that is what he meant, since I cannot count people
reading <?php ?> in the middle of the page thinking it can interact
directly with nodes and javascript, and being "a new one", I think
Ash replied in the correct way.

All true, and probably appropriate to clarify the relationship between
php and js.
However, if the goal is to pre-set something in php land so you don't
have to pass it with your next page navigation, you could use ajax to
to pass the value to a simple php script that in turn updates a php
session variable, so that it is already set when you do your next real
page load.
You would still be "calling a page" technically, but your current
displayed page would remain in place and php would have the value
available on its next page load.
