                        $view="view".$row[0];
                        $image=$row[1];
                        $name=$row[2];

                        </td>
                    </tr>";
                    }
                    ?>

Answer 1

You can call JavaScript function and send variables to it like this:

<script>
function myFunc(var1){
    alert(var1);
}
</script>

<?php
    $var1= "\"test string\"";
    echo "<a href='' onclick='myFunc($var1);'>Link to Click</a>";
?>

your variables sending is wrong.
