This question is asked before but it is not working for me. I am using wordpress and I want to provide the location of the url "myfile.php" to my plugin directory but i don't know is it possible or not. Here is my javascript code:

    xmlhttp.open("GET","myfile.php?q="+str,true);
    xmlhttp.send();
  }
}

Manually it is working fine by providing complete location but is it possible to apply function to get myfile.php by using something like plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) Any help is highly appreciated

    A directory path to a file is unrelated to the URL. Javascript is client-side, it's requesting the PHP from the outside and needs a URL, not a path. – miken32 Dec 12 '20 at 20:23

Thanksfor all of your contrubution. Finally i get the solution by applying php function in it like this:

xmlhttp.open("GET","<?php
$ffi= plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ ) . '/myfile.php';
    echo $ffi;?>?q=" +str,true);
    xmlhttp.send();
  }

I got the same result like this:

let pluginPath = "../wp-content/plugins/YOUR_PLUGIN_FOLDER_NAME/";

    xmlhttp.open("GET",pluginPath + "myfile.php?q="+str,true);
    xmlhttp.send();
  }
}
