Calling the User ID for javascript

    I have been blessed with a javascript/PHP plugin that will add the user_id to the end of external links. One small problem: I have to update the “define” line with calling the logged in user’s ID #. Does anybody know how I tell it to define that paramater as the user ID?

    Does this look right?

    <?php
    wp_get_current_user();
    echo 'User ID: ' . $current_user->ID . '<br />';
?>

define( 'EXT_LINK_PARAMS', 'ul=$current_user' );
    <?php
    wp_get_current_user();
    $user_id = $current_user->ID;
    echo 'User ID: '.$user_id.'<br />';
            $ext_link_param = 'ul='.$user_id;

define( 'EXT_LINK_PARAMS', $ext_link_param );
?>
