What are the potential issues with mixing PHP and JavaScript code in the same file?

Mixing PHP and JavaScript code in the same file can lead to confusion and make the code harder to maintain. To solve this issue, it's recommended to separate the PHP and JavaScript code into different files or use PHP to generate JavaScript code dynamically when needed. 

```php
<?php
// Separate PHP and JavaScript code into different files
// PHP file
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Example</title>
</head>
<body>
    <p>Some PHP-generated content</p>
    <script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
```

In the above example, the PHP code generates the HTML content, and the JavaScript code is kept in a separate file called "script.js" for better organization.
