Calling Javascript function in an external file through php file?

Question

Javascript code (In another file in the same directory):

function js(str)
{
 alert(str);
}

PHP code(in current file):

<?php
echo '<script  type="text/javascript" src="C:\xampp2\htdocs\ARD\call_jsfunc_diff_page.js">  </script>';
echo '<script>js("hello!!")</script>';
?>

I have checked on many links on the internet, i think i'm doing the right way, but the javascript function js(str) doesn't get called !!

Can somebody help me please ??

Before you edit the question, you are calling the wrong function and give the relative src than giving the absolute path. — Anjana Silva

First of all, is the path to your external js-file correct? Try adding alert('Hello') at top of that file, so you know it is called. Second: Do you get an error in your console (something like 'call to undefined function js'?). It's possible the function isn't initialized yet at the moment you call it. Try setting a timeout before calling the function. — Michel

Before you edited the question: You called the function js but you are trying to call the func function.

Access to local hard disks is also problematic. Use a relative URI and access the .js over HTTP instead.
