1You should state the problem clearly - I assume in this case you simply could not get it to work and saw nothing.yakobom– yakobom2017-02-19 08:57:53 +00:00Commented Feb 19, 2017 at 8:57

Try using json_encode()
Example
echo "<script>console.log('" . json_encode($data) . "');</script>";

Be carefull, you pass the
$data array as string.Try adding JSON.parse in addition to what the others said - that way it gets console.logged as an object, meaning you can expand it and navigate it in Chrome like so.
echo "<script>console.log(JSON.parse('" . json_encode($data) . "'));</script>";

Note: I understand this question is asking about arrays, so string is probably fine, but to represent more complex objects this works better.

I'm using
echo "<script>console.log(".json_encode(var_export($object, true)).");</script>";
as it allows you to display complex PHP objects and not only up to arrays.

This is the only answer that worked for me.
You could use json_encode to parse the array in json and be able to read it from javascript :
PHP file :
<?php
$data = array(
"data" => "Hello",
"data1" => "World"
);
echo "<script>console.log(".json_encode($data).");</script>";
Output in Web Console :
Object { data: "Hello", data1: "World" }

@Kavin. Glad to hear it but this solution is different. Here you can use the json object from javascript. In the accepted solution, the json object is passed to javascript as a string.
