RE: FLASH: Throwing cfoutput variables into javascript

[Eric Dunham]

If you could post an example of your code, I could try and help  you with

it...

But IMO, one of the easiest ways to get CF variables into JS is to do

something like this...

------------------

<script>

<!--

<cfoutput>

my_js_var = "#my_cf_var#";

</cfoutput>

//-->

</script>

------------------

Email me offlist if you want me to help you with more specific items.


HTH,

Eric Dunham

Subject: FLASH: Throwing cfoutput variables into javascript



IM having a challange here.


I am not the best javascript programmer but in a nutshell here is what I

want to do.


I am trying to output data about flash attributes located in a database into

javascript via coldfusion.


My question is: How can I pass information from a cfoutput to javascript or

how do can I encode the javascript to accomodate coldfusion tags within

it...



I tried nesting cold fusion tags with in javascript.. That doesnt work. I

have also tried the cfset tag to create a variable before the javascript

starts. This does not work either.


Does anyone have any experience in manipulating a cfoutput to properly store

a variable so javascript can read it?


If anyone has any questions or wishes to see some of the code I have done. I

could post it.


TIA


Dan
