Call a JavaScript function depending on the value of a PHP variable

Question

I am passing a variable via the URL as var=5 to urlrun.php (like urlrun.php?var=5). There is a JavaScript function called testrun in urlrun.php.

Is there a way to call that JavaScript function depending on the value of that variable (var) passed through the URL?

For example, if($_GET['var']==5), I need to call that JavaScript function.

Put this somewhere:

<?php if($_GET['var'] == 5) { ?>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        testrun();
    </script>
<?php } ?>

@look4php: It should. Try replacing the contents of testrun with a simple alert("testrun called"); and see if it works.
