<?php $name=?>
This piece of code will generate an error since it is not complete.
To pas a JS function value to PHP the JS function should return the value first. Then the value could either be
1. set into a form element (maybe a hidden input) and the form posted to the server or
2. sent to the server by ajax
Hope I understood the question. Could you explain more what you want to achieve, please.

Yea you should probably use AJAX for that :). That's an Asynchronous Javascript And XML call, which enables you to execute PHP even after the page has loaded. Check out how it works here:
