Is it possible to pass a variable to a linked .js file? I tried this:
<sf:JsFileLink ID="JQueryLoader" runat="server" ScriptType="Custom" FileName="~/Files/Scripts/rotatorLoader.js?timeout=1000" />
But firebug is telling me that timeout is not defined. Here is the code for that .js file:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#rotator > ul").tabs({ fx: { opacity: "toggle"} }).tabs("rotate", timeout, true);
});
I am using <sf:JsFileLink ... /> tag is because the website I am working in utilizes sitefinity and this tag allows me to load external .js files.
UPDATE:
I was able to 'trick' the include by creating an aspx page that emulates a javascript page:
<%# Page Language="C#" %>
<%
Response.ContentType = "text/javascript";
Response.Clear();
string timeout;
try
{
timeout = Session["timeout"].ToString();
}
catch
{
timeout = "4000";
}
%>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#rotator > ul").tabs({ fx: { opacity: "toggle"} }).tabs("rotate", <%=timeout %>, true);
});
And on the user control page:
[DefaultProperty("BannerTimeout")]
public partial class Custom_UserControls_TabbedRotator : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
[Category("Configuration")]
[Description("Sets the rotation timeout, in seconds.")]
[DisplayName("Banner Timeout")]
public int BannerTimeout { get; set; }
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Session.Add("timeout", (BannerTimeout*1000));
}
}
This achieved what I was looking for, and maybe this method can help someone else out.
try this:
<script>
var myvariable = "foo";
</script>
<script src="/link/to/js.js"></script>
No, you can't pass parameters like that and have the script read them in.
Technically you could grab them from the <script> tag, but that would be a real mess.
Could you just output a script block before you include the file?
<script type="text/javascript"> var timeout = 1000; </script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var imagesPath = "emblematiq/img/";
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="emblematiq/niceforms.js"></script>
This will work fine on server
No, but you can pass a the value directly to a function in that file or set a variable value that will be used in the external file.

I am facing a problem passing string to HTML page through javascript.
I have a window form,
A HTML file, where I have my Javascript and HTML code.
In the function in C# page, I have a string that I need to send to the HTML page through javascript. But I can not pass it. Please advise me.
Thanks
My C# method code below
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Assembly assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(assembly.GetManifestResourceStream("ProjectName.Maps.html"));
webBrowser1.DocumentText = reader.ReadToEnd();
***//pass getDefaultMap() value (str) to the javascript in Maps.html page.***
}
private string getDefaultMap()
{
string str;
str = (#"Exec SP_Map_Display #Opt=1");
return str ;
}
My HTML page is below
<body>
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#btnSubmit").click(function () {
***// Get the data from C# code str***
}
</script>
<input type="button" name="btnSubmit" value="Submit" />
<div id="dvMap">
</div>
</body>
Assuming this is WinForms since there's a WebBrowser control, to call C# code from the HTML page JavaScript can be accomplished with this minimum example:
Simple HTML page added to the root of the project and Properties was setup to Copy to Output Directory: Copy if newer this will ensure there's a simple page for testing:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>WebForms WebBrowser Control Client</title>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" onclick="getLocations()" value="Call C#" />
<script type="text/javascript">
function getLocations() {
var locations = window.external.SendLocations();
alert(locations);
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
The JS function getLocations will call C# method SendLocations, the important parts are the Form1 class annotations and setting webBrowser1.ObjectForScripting = this :
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Security.Permissions;
using System.IO;
[PermissionSet(SecurityAction.Demand, Name = "FullTrust")]
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
webBrowser1.ObjectForScripting = this;
var path = Path.GetFullPath("Client.html");
var uri = new Uri(path);
webBrowser1.Navigate(uri);
}
public string SendLocations()
{
return "SF, LA, NY";
}
}
Clicking the HTML button Call C# will show a popup with the return value from C# method
I am using Thymeleaf as template engine. How I pass a variable from Spring model to JavaScript variable?
Spring-side:
#RequestMapping(value = "message", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String messages(Model model) {
model.addAttribute("message", "hello");
return "index";
}
Client-side:
<script>
....
var m = ${message}; // not working
alert(m);
...
</script>
According to the official documentation:
<script th:inline="javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/
var message = /*[[${message}]]*/ 'default';
console.log(message);
/*]]>*/
</script>
Thymeleaf 3 now:
Display a constant:
<script th:inline="javascript">
var MY_URL = /*[[${T(com.xyz.constants.Fruits).cheery}]]*/ "";
</script>
Display a variable:
var message = [[${message}]];
Or in a comment to have a valid JavaScript code when you open your template file in a static manner (without executing it at a server).
Thymeleaf calls this: JavaScript natural templates
var message = /*[[${message}]]*/ "";
Thymeleaf will ignore everything we have written after the comment and before the semicolon.
More info: http://www.thymeleaf.org/doc/tutorials/3.0/usingthymeleaf.html#javascript-inlining
var message =/*[[${message}]]*/ 'defaultanyvalue';
According to the documentation there are several ways to do the inlining.
The right way you must choose based on the situation.
1) Simply put the variable from server to javascript :
<script th:inline="javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/
var message = [[${message}]];
alert(message);
/*]]>*/
</script>
2) Combine javascript variables with server side variables, e.g. you need to create link for requesting inside the javascript:
<script th:inline="javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/
function sampleGetByJquery(v) {
/*[+
var url = [[#{/my/get/url(var1=${#httpServletRequest.getParameter('var1')})}]]
+ "&var2="+v;
+]*/
$("#myPanel").load(url, function() {});
}
/*]]>*/
</script>
The one situation I can't resolve - then I need to pass javascript variable inside the Java method calling inside the template (it's impossible I guess).
MAKE sure you have thymleaf on page already
//Use this in java
#Controller
#RequestMapping("/showingTymleafTextInJavaScript")
public String thankYou(Model model){
model.addAttribute("showTextFromJavaController","dummy text");
return "showingTymleafTextInJavaScript";
}
//thymleaf page javascript page
<script>
var showtext = "[[${showTextFromJavaController}]]";
console.log(showtext);
</script>
I've seen this kind of thing work in the wild:
<input type="button" th:onclick="'javascript:getContactId(\'' + ${contact.id} + '\');'" />
If you use Thymeleaf 3:
<script th:inline="javascript">
var username = [[${session.user.name}]];
</script>
If you need to display your variable unescaped, use this format:
<script th:inline="javascript">
/*<![CDATA[*/
var message = /*[(${message})]*/ 'default';
/*]]>*/
</script>
Note the [( brackets which wrap the variable.
Another way to do it is to create a dynamic javascript returned by a java controller like it is written here in the thymeleaf forum: http://forum.thymeleaf.org/Can-I-use-th-inline-for-a-separate-javascript-file-td4025766.html
One way to handle this is to create a dynamic javascript file with the
URLs embedded in it. Here are the steps (if you are using Spring MVC)
#RequestMapping(path = {"/dynamic.js"}, method = RequestMethod.GET, produces = "application/javascript")
#ResponseStatus(value = HttpStatus.OK)
#ResponseBody
public String dynamicJS(HttpServletRequest request) {
return "Your javascript code....";
}
Assuming request attribute named "message":
request.setAttribute("message", "this is my message");
To read it in the html page using Thymeleaf template:
<script>
var message = "[[${message}]]";
alert(message);
</script>
Good day!
I need a help on activating my javascript function via on-load on code behind.
Here is my code:
string script = #"var applyCss = function () {
var css = '#CalendarPanel1-month-day-20170607, #CalendarPanel1-month-day-20170614 {background-color: #D0D3D4;}';
Ext.net.ResourceMgr.registerCssClass('someCssClassId', css);
}; ";
ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this, typeof(Page), "css", script, true);
By the way, my code above works in front-end via button click.
But my desired result is, I want my javascript function to work on page load without needing to click the button. I put my javascript function in code-behind because I will put dynamic dates in the css variables. The code above still has static variables. (CalendarPanel1-month-day-20170607)
Will gladly appreaciate any response / solution. Big thanks!
You could use an immediately invoked function to do the trick. Basically you don't give a name to your javascript function and you invoke it right after it's defined.
For example:
var script = #"(function () {alert('Hello');})(); ";
ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(this, typeof(Page), "123", script, true);
You need to wrap the function with its body between parenthesis then another set of parenthesis to invoke the function.
You can also pass parameters to your function (which I'm assuming it's what you want to do):
var myAlertText = "Hello Hello";
var script = #"(function (myText) {alert(myText);})('" + myAlertText + "');" ;
If I were you though I would defined the function in client code and just invoke it from code behind with the right parameters.
An alternative and fancier way to call javascript code from code behind would be using X.Call(). Check out this example:
<%# Page Language="C#" %>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<script runat="server">
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!X.IsAjaxRequest)
{
string script = #"var myJSSideVar = 'my var value';
var applyCss = function (paramOne, paramTwo) {
var css = '#CalendarPanel1-month-day-20170607, #CalendarPanel1-month-day-20170614 {background-color: #D0D3D4;}';
Ext.net.ResourceMgr.registerCssClass('someCssClassId', css);
Ext.Msg.alert('applyCss called.', 'I\'ve been run with parameters: (' + paramOne + ', ' + paramTwo + ').');
};";
var hi = "hello";
X.AddScript(script);
X.Call("applyCss", new object[] { hi, new JRawValue("myJSSideVar") });
}
}
</script>
<html>
<head runat="server">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form runat="server" id="form1">
<div>
<ext:ResourceManager runat="server" />
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Notice the second parameter sent to the script call is sent "raw", i.e., it calls: applyCss("hello", myJSSideVar)
If you need to pass but one single parameter you don't need to pass an array, e.g. X.Call("applyCss", hi);
I am using an external javascript file for my asp.net project. Now i want to get the session value in that javascript. How can i get the session value in that javascript file?
Thanks in advance..
<script>
var someSession = '<%= Session["SessionName"].ToString() %>';
alert(someSession)
</script>
This code you can write in Aspx. If you want this in some js.file, you have two ways:
Make aspx file which writes complete JS code, and set source of this file as Script src
Make handler, to process JS file as aspx.
You can access your session variable like '<%= Session["VariableName"]%>'
the text in single quotes will give session value.
1)
<script>
var session ='<%= Session["VariableName"]%>'
</script>
2) you can take a hidden field and assign value at server;
hiddenfield.value= session["xyz"].tostring();
//and in script you access the hiddenfield like
alert(document.getElementbyId("hiddenfield").value);
For me this code worked in JavaScript like a charm!
<%= session.getAttribute("variableName")%>
hope it helps...
I tried following with ASP.NET MVC 5, its works for me
var sessionData = "#Session["SessionName"]";
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Session["MyTest"] = "abcd";
String csname = "OnSubmitScript";
Type cstype = this.GetType();
// Get a ClientScriptManager reference from the Page class.
ClientScriptManager cs = Page.ClientScript;
// Check to see if the OnSubmit statement is already registered.
if (!cs.IsOnSubmitStatementRegistered(cstype, csname))
{
string cstext = " document.getElementById(\"TextBox1\").value = getMyvalSession() ; ";
cs.RegisterOnSubmitStatement(cstype, csname, cstext);
}
if (TextBox1.Text.Equals("")) { }
else {
Session["MyTest"] = TextBox1.Text;
}
}
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<script language=javascript type="text/javascript">
function getMyvalSession() {
var txt = "efgh";
var ff = '<%=Session["MyTest"] %>' + txt;
return ff ;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" AutoPostBack=true ></asp:TextBox>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
If you are using VB as code behind, you have to use bracket "()" instead of square bracket "[]".
Example for VB:
<script type="text/javascript">
var accesslevel = '<%= Session("accesslevel").ToString().ToLower() %>';
</script>
var sessionVal = '#Session["EnergyUnit"]';
alert(sessionVal);
Friends,
I am trying to use DyGraph in my application. Please look at the code below -
<head>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7; IE=EmulateIE9">
<title>crosshairs</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="dygraph-combined.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>
</head>
The code uses data.js file containing function to get some static data.
I want data.js to be generated using a controller method so that it will generate data using database.
Can anybody help me out to resolve this issue.
Thanks for sharing your valuable time.
You could define a controller action:
public ActionResult Data()
{
// Obviously this will be dynamically generated
var data = "alert('Hello World');";
return JavaScript(data);
}
and then:
<script type="text/javascript" src="<%= Url.Action("Data", "SomeController") %>"></script>
If you have some complex script that you don't want to generate in the controller you could follow the standard MVC pattern by defining a view model:
public class MyViewModel
{
... put required properties
}
a controller action which would populate this view model and pass it to the view:
public ActionResult Data()
{
MyViewModel model = ...
Response.ContentType = "application/javascript";
return PartialView(model);
}
and finally a view which in this case will be the javascript representation of the view model (~/Views/SomeController/Data.ascx):
<%# Control
Language="C#"
Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<MyViewModel>" %>
alert(<%= new JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(Model.Name) %>);
Full Disclosure
This answer is copy/pasted from another question:
Dynamically generated Javascript, CSS in ASP.NET MVC
This answer is similar to other answers here.
This answer uses cshtml pages rather than ascx controls.
This answer offers a View-Only solution rather than a Controller-Only solution.
I don't think my answer is 'better' but I think it might be easier for some.
Dynamic CSS in a CSHTML File
I use CSS comments /* */ to comment out a new <style> tag and then I return; before the closing style tag:
/*<style type="text/css">/* */
CSS GOES HERE
#{return;}</style>
Dynamic JS in a CSHTML File
I use JavaScript comments // to comment out a new <script> tag and then I return; before the closing script tag:
//<script type="text/javascript">
JAVASCRIPT GOES HERE
#{return;}</script>
MyDynamicCss.cshtml
#{
var fieldList = new List<string>();
fieldList.Add("field1");
fieldList.Add("field2");
}
/*<style type="text/css">/* */
#foreach (var field in fieldList) {<text>
input[name="#field"]
, select[name="#field"]
{
background-color: #bbb;
color: #6f6f6f;
}
</text>}
#{return;}</style>
MyDynamicJavsScript.cshtml
#{
var fieldList = new List<string>();
fieldList.Add("field1");
fieldList.Add("field2");
fieldArray = string.Join(",", fieldList);
}
//<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
var fieldList = "#Html.Raw(fieldArray)";
var fieldArray = fieldList.split(',');
var arrayLength = fieldArray.length;
var selector = '';
for (var i = 0; i < arrayLength; i++) {
var field = fieldArray[i];
selector += (selector == '' ? '' : ',')
+ 'input[name="' + field + '"]'
+ ',select[name="' + field + '"]';
}
$(selector).attr('disabled', 'disabled');
$(selector).addClass('disabled');
});
#{return;}</script>
No Controller Required (using Views/Shared)
I put both of my dynamic scripts into Views/Shared/ and I can easily embed them into any existing page (or in _Layout.cshtml) using the following code:
<style type="text/css">#Html.Partial("MyDynamicCss")</style>
<script type="text/javascript">#Html.Partial("MyDynamicJavaScript")</script>
Using a Controller (optional)
If you prefer you may create a controller e.g.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="#Url.Action("MyDynamicCss", "MyDynamicCode")">
<script type="text/javascript" src="#Url.Action("MyDynamicJavaScript", "MyDynamicCode")"></script>
Here's what the controller might look like
MyDynamicCodeController.cs (optional)
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult MyDynamicCss()
{
Response.ContentType = "text/css";
return View();
}
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult MyDynamicJavaScript()
{
Response.ContentType = "application/javascript";
return View();
}
Notes
The controller version is not tested. I just typed that off the top of my head.
After re-reading my answer, it occurs to me it might be just as easy to comment out the closing tags rather than use the cshtml #{return;}, but I haven't tried it. I imagine it's a matter of preference.
Concerning my entire answer, if you find any syntax errors or improvements please let me know.
