Since they are two seperate languages, all you can really do is use PHP to
write dynamic Javascript or assign values to javascript variables with
php..  if you want the drop downs to be dynamic then you'll need to write a
function that makes a database call, gathers all the data and then writes
it to static arrays in a file that you can then read with Javascript and
create the drop downs from the arrays.

They are seperate, don't think of them as being able to work together to
much.  except that you can build JS using PHP.
