It is impossible to pass a JavaScript variable to PHP. JavaScript is executed on the client side (on your browser), and PHP is executed on the server side.

You can also use Ajax to send values to a PHP page which can insert those values into a database. You can also use jQuery which will be simpler solution. Have a look at this: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.post/

I did it on a file where I passed the get array variable to the post array variable.  This can get messy if you do it by the for each.
