It's generally considered best practices to wrap HTML elements in
double quotes.
So, your onclick event handler should look like this:

onclick="js_test('<?php echo $string; ?>');"

(Note that it is also considered good form to use <?php ... ?> to
denote PHP code at all times.)

Depending on the contents of $string, you might also want to use the
addslashes() function, like so...
onclick="js_test('<?php echo addslashes($string); ?>');"

Hope this helps.
