Execute PHP script onclick with jQuery

Hello I'm struggling to get this to work:

I'm trying to get jQuery to execute a PHP Script for me, at the moment it looks pretty much like this:

html

<button id="element">Click me!</button>

php

$string = "Hello Earth!";
echo $string;

jQuery

$('#element').click(function() {
    $.load('.../script.php', function(e){
        console.log(e);
    });
});

The load() method loads data from a server and puts the returned data into the selected element. from http://www.w3schools.com/jquery/jquery_ajax_load.asp

Correct sintax:

$( "#result" ).load( "ajax/test.html" );

And you have to correct your code, you have .../script.php instead of ../script.php

.load() must be called on an element, like this: 

$('#element').click(function() {
   $('#element').load('.../script.php', function(e){
        console.log(e);
    });
});
