passing php variable to javascript

[woodplease]

I'm using the swfupload script to upload multiple files to the server. i want to be able to pass a variable to the upload script so that i can also add the information to a database. i'm using the $_GET variable as the upload script page isnt actually displayed. how can i pass the $_GET variable to my script.

 

 

$album_id = $_GET['album_id'];
<script>
$(function(){
$("#swfupload-control").swfupload({
	upload_url: "upload-file.php?album_id='$album_id'", //i want the $album_id here so when the upload-file.php is called, the variable is passed to it.
	file_post_name: "uploadfile",
	file_size_limit : "10240",
	file_types : "*.jpg;*.png;*.gif",
	file_types_description : "Image files",
	file_upload_limit : 20,
	flash_url : "js/swfupload/swfupload.swf",
	button_image_url : "js/swfupload/wdp_buttons_upload_114x29.png",
	button_width : 114,
	button_height : 29,
	button_placeholder : $('#button')[0],
	debug: false
})
	.bind("fileQueued'", function(event, file){
		var listitem='<li id="'+file.id+'" >'+
			'File: <em>'+file.name+'</em> ('+Math.round(file.size/1024)+' KB) <span class="progressvalue" ></span>'+
			'<div class="progressbar" ><div class="progress" ></div></div>'+
			'<p class="status" >Pending</p>'+
			'<span class="cancel" > </span>'+
			'</li>';
		$('#log').append(listitem);
		$('li#'+file.id+' .cancel').bind('click', function(){
			var swfu = $.swfupload.getInstance('#swfupload-control');
			swfu.cancelUpload(file.id);
			$('li#'+file.id).slideUp('fast');
		});
		// start the upload since it's queued
		$(this).swfupload('startUpload');
	})
	.bind('fileQueueError', function(event, file, errorCode, message){
		alert('Size of the file '+file.name+' is greater than limit');
	})
	.bind('fileDialogComplete', function(event, numFilesSelected, numFilesQueued){
		$('#queuestatus').text('Files Selected: '+numFilesSelected+' / Queued Files: '+numFilesQueued);
	})
	.bind('uploadStart', function(event, file){
		$('#log li#'+file.id).find('p.status').text('Uploading...');
		$('#log li#'+file.id).find('span.progressvalue').text('0%');
		$('#log li#'+file.id).find('span.cancel').hide();
	})
	.bind('uploadProgress', function(event, file, bytesLoaded){
		//Show Progress
		var percentage=Math.round((bytesLoaded/file.size)*100);
		$('#log li#'+file.id).find('div.progress').css('width', percentage+'%');
		$('#log li#'+file.id).find('span.progressvalue').text(percentage+'%');
	})
	.bind('uploadSuccess', function(event, file, serverData){
		var item=$('#log li#'+file.id);
		item.find('div.progress').css('width', '100%');
		item.find('span.progressvalue').text('100%');
		var pathtofile='<a href="uploads/'+file.name+'" target="_blank" ></a>';
		item.addClass('success').find('p.status').html('Done!!!  '+pathtofile);
	})
	.bind('uploadComplete', function(event, file){
		// upload has completed, try the next one in the queue
		$(this).swfupload('startUpload');
	})

});

</script>	

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ah right thanks, i was thinking i may have to use php to print the javascript, but was getting confused with all the quotes and single quotes.
