How to echo javascript code in php

I am having a problem with how to echo javascript in php. I have a form which on submit will execute itself and echo some text and will redirect to a page in 5secs. I am currently echoing this:

header("Refresh: 5;url=index2.php?ID=".$objResult["ID"]."");

echo '<html>';
echo '<head>';
echo '<title>Klant toevoegen</title>';
echo '<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />';
echo '</head>';
echo '<body>';
echo '<fieldset>';
echo ''.$Naam.' is added to the database, u will be redirected in a couple of seconds.<br><br>';
echo '</fieldset>';
echo '</body>';
echo '</html>';

The javascript I have is a countdown which counts down from 5 to 1. The code is this:

<script>

var countdownFrom = 5;  // number of seconds
var countdownwin;

var stp;
function CountDownStart() {
 stp = setInterval("CountDownTimer('CountDownTime')",1000)
}

function CountDownTimer(id)
{
if (countdownFrom==0) {clearInterval(stp); window.close(); }
else     {
            var x
            var cntText = "Closing in "+countdownFrom+" seconds";

        if (document.getElementById)
    {
        x = document.getElementById(id);
        x.innerHTML = cntText;        }
    else if (document.all)
    {
        x = document.all[id];
        x.innerHTML = cntText;        }
    }
countdownFrom--
}

</script>
   <title>Untitled</title>
</head>

<body onload="CountDownStart()">

<Div id="CountDownTime"></div>

</body>

Now I would like to echo this countdown script to replace the <fieldset> in the html. I have tried several things like just add the whole code in 1 echo ''; and I tried to echo all the lines seperately but with both it crashes my whole script. If anyone knows how to do this it would be great!

You can put the script in a separate .js file and echo the script tag:

<? echo "<script type='text/javascript' src='path/to/script.js' ></script> ?>

Don't forget to remove any HTML tags from the JS file, like <body>, <head>, etc.

Try to use

echo <<<EOT
   /*  some text here */
EOT;

I Wouldn't write all those echo's, instead, leave all the HTML and JS outside the PHP block

<?php
some php code
?>

HTML AND JS

<?php
More php if required
?>

And use

<?=$Naam?>

To inject your values where required

Alternatively you should look into template engines
