You can also adapt your javascript function to accept arrays as parameter.

If so you can via PHP set values of an array and then call the function only one time:

<script type="text/javascript">
<?php
    echo "var arrayPies = [";

    for($i=0; $i <= 10; $i++){
        echo ($i<10) ? "$i," : "$i";
    }

    echo "];\n";

    echo "callPieFunction(arrayPies);";
?>
</script>

The above code will output something like this:

var arrayPies = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10];
callPieFunction(arrayPies);

This would call jsFunction() 10 times with params from 0 to 10

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
<?php
    for($i=0; $i <= 10; $i++;){
        echo 'jsFunction(' + $i + ')';
    }
?>
});
</script>

Which is equivalent to simply writing (and will output this to page):

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){
        jsFunction(0);
        jsFunction(1);
        jsFunction(2);
        jsFunction(3);
        jsFunction(4);
        jsFunction(5);
        jsFunction(6);
        jsFunction(7);
        jsFunction(8);
        jsFunction(9);
    });
</script>

You can write a new script tag or jQuery function in the foreach loop

    echo '<script>';
    foreach(....){
        echo 'drawPieFunction();';
    }
    echo '</script>';

highly recommend against this though since it has next to no good uses

PHP is server side, JavaScript (jQuery) is client side. You cannot use PHP to invoke a JavaScript function.
