It’s not suitable for keeping two “live” accounts in sync, but for our purposes should be used, after the email has been pointed at our servers, and you need to ensure your old email is not lost when your old provider turns off the service.

Ever needed to send a PHP variable, array, or object to JavaScript? It can get complicated trying to escape the output properly. Here’s a way that always works—no escaping necessary.
Passing data from PHP to JavaScript
Have you ever needed to send a PHP variable, array, or object to JavaScript? It can get complicated trying to escape the output properly. Here’s a way that always works—no escaping necessary.
Let’s say we have the following variable in PHP:
$name=‘Bob Marley’;
And we want to pass it to a JavaScript variable called name. Here’s the trick:
echo‘<script>’;
echo‘var name = ‘.json_encode($name).‘;’;
echo‘</script>’;
Using json_encode(), you’ll always get a properly formatted JavaScript object.
