What are the potential pitfalls of embedding JavaScript code within PHP code?

Potential pitfalls of embedding JavaScript code within PHP code include making the code harder to read and maintain, increasing the risk of syntax errors, and making it difficult to debug. To address this issue, it is recommended to separate JavaScript code from PHP code by using external JavaScript files or by using PHP to output JavaScript code. 

<?php
// Separate JavaScript code from PHP code by using PHP to output JavaScript code
?>
<script>
  // JavaScript code here
</script>
