The closest JavaScript equivalent to echo() is document.write;  
however, that only works within <script> tags, which of course can't  
go within attributes of other tags.  So it would be better (not least  
because it would be possible) to read the href attribute and append  
the JavaScript variable to it before opening the link, e.g.:

<a href="img.php?s=<?php echo($value);?>" onclick="window.open 
( this.getAttribute( 'href' ) + '&t=' + t ); return false;">Click  
here</a>

Peace,
