send ejs data back to server code example

Example 1: how to use ejs with client side ejs

<div id="output"></div>
<script src="ejs.min.js"></script>
<script>
  let people = ['geddy', 'neil', 'alex'],
      html = ejs.render('<%= people.join(", "); %>', {people: people});
  // With jQuery:
  $('#output').html(html);
  // Vanilla JS:
  document.getElementById('output').innerHTML = html;
</script>

Example 2: using server passed values and client js together in ejs

<% var test = 101; %> // variable created by ejs
 <script>
   var getTest = <%= test  %>;  //var test is now assigned to getTest which will only work on browsers
   console.log(getTest);  // successfully prints 101 on browser
</script>
