PHP variables not passing through javascript function

[Xanco]

Hello peoples.

Right, here's what I'm trying to do; the user fills out a form (that inserts a link in HTML for them), in this form there are to variables ($address and $webname). These are then saved, then are combined with javascript to produce the following in a text area:

 

<a href=$address>$webname</a>
but instead I get this:
<a href=></a>

Here's my php code stating the variables:

 

$address = empty ($_GET["address"]) ? "" : $_GET["address"];
$webname = empty ($_GET["webname"]) ? "" : $_GET["webname"];

Here's my form:

 

<form id="webaddressenter" style="display:none;">
<label for="address">Your URL:</label>
<input type="text" name="address" value="<?php echo $address; ?>" placeholder="http:www.google.com"><br />
<label for="webname">Website name:</label>
<input type="text" name="webname" value="<?php echo $webname; ?>" placeholder="Google"><br />
<input type="button" value="submit" onclick="insertaddress()" id="tag">
</form>

 

Here's my javascript function

function insertaddress(){
insert(window.lstText,'<a href=<?php echo $address ?>><?php echo $webname ?></a>')
}

The variables to not exist until after the form has been submitted.
