how to include javascript inside html

Sorry for asking this silly question.

I got stuck to include a javascript file in my html page in a php project. when I try this it works fine-

<script type="text/javascript" src="script.js"></script>

But when I want to load the script.js file from my js directory it does not work. I tried-

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/script.js"></script>

N.B: I have my js folder in the same myproject directory alongside my index.php and script.js is located inside the js folder.

Answer

Since there are subfolders in your project, to have js/script.js working you have to set your base path in your index.php like

echo '<base href="http://localhost/myproject/">';

then the following line as a normal html

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/script.js"></script>
