There might be, but consider to simply pass the required values as data to JavaScript instead. A very simplistic way might be: PHP file: <?php $serverData = ['client_id' => CLIENT_ID']?> <script>var serverData = <?=json_encode($serverData)?></script> <script src="login.js"> JavaScript file (login.js): alert(serverData.CLIENT_ID); -- Christoph M.
