Ah, gotcha. Not sure this is more intuitive than the other way, but if
it's common practice then so be it :)
Thanks!

You still want to drupal_add_js(), but instead of one call you
want two.
The first is to add your mymodule.js
The second is to do something like
$settings = array(
'MyModule' => array(
'value1' => 'some value',
'value2' => 'some other value'
)
);
drupal_add_js( $settings, 'setting' );
You also need to modify mymodule.js to use the values something like
var settings = Drupal.settings.MyModule;
// Now you can use
// settings.value1 and settings.value2
(of course you need to change MyModule to your actual module name
and I would suggest more meaningful names than value1 and value2)

Nothing confuses me faster than mixing php and js (and especially
escaping the quotes). In this case, my confusion is the concept and
not the gobblygook.
I have a module invoking hook_block, and a function that creates and
returns the block content. In this function I invoke drupal_add_js to
gather the contents of ./mymodule.js
So far so good. However, the js needs to be dynamic...there are two
function values that need to be embedded in it. I'm thinking that
with this being the case, drupal_add_js might not be the way to go
(back to escaping quotes), but wanted to poll first for best
practice, since I'll be contributing this module.
Thanks,
