If you don't want to put your javascript in with you php I believe you have to use AJAX. This might work..

source.php

$image_addr = "/blah/blah/blah.jpg"
echo $image_addr;

stuff.html (or .js)

    $.get('source.php', setimg);

function setimg(data) {
       $('#imageid').attr( "src", data );
    }

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#imageid').attr( "src", '<?php echo "user/hangout_images/$imag_addr"; ?>' );
});

You should try to keep as much HTML out of the PHP as possible like this, hopefully I'm not being to nitpicky...

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#imageid').attr( "src", "/new/path/to/<?php echo $image_addr;?>" );
});

Also remember that PHP renders on the server before javascript (which renders in the browser), so if you are trying to make a PHP change to a page that is already loaded, that won't work.
