Hi,

I'm trying to use a keyfield in my view header to process a j@v@script if statement:



<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<HTML {$html_attrs}><HEAD><TITLE>PublicCMS</TITLE>

<?php

$varcms = $data["cms_id"]

?>

<script type=text/javascript>
js_cms_id = <?php echo $varcms; ?>

document.write(js_cms_id);
</SCRIPT>



<META name=GENERATOR content="MSHTML 8.00.7600.16588"></HEAD>
...In my test, I can't seem to get the php variable passed to my script variable. I'm sure this must be done quite often, but I can't seem to do a search in the forum on the word J@V@script.
Ideas?

In order to simplify my test, I added a simple hello world:

<?php

$varcms = $data["cms_id"];

$varcms2 = "hello world";

?>
<script type=text/javascript>
js_cms_id = <?php echo $varcms; ?>;

document.write(js_cms_id);
js_cms_id2 = <?php echo $varcms2; ?>;

document.write(js_cms_id2);
</SCRIPT>

False alarm. It seems I can use {$CMS_ID_value} directly in the script. Thanks for your time anyway

OOOOOPPPPPSSSS!!!!!

I spoke too soon. It seems that the code generator will not allow {$CMS_ID_value} to be inside a script. It will pass if I build from the html view, but if I switch to the visual editor and then go back to the html view, it dissapears.
Still need help.... sorry

Hi,
since header is common for all pages you can't access fields here.

As workaround you can take out field values using custom event on the Visual Editor tab.
