Can you please take a look at this code and let me know why I am not able to pass variable value from PHP to jQuery?
<?php
$data = "This is For Test";
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
  <head>  </head>
  <body>
    <button id="test" type="button" class="btn btn-default">Default</button>
    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script>
    var data = "<?php $data; ?>";
    $("#test").on("click",function(){
     alert(data);
    });
    </script>
  </body>
</html> 
Thanks
