Hi,

I'm trying to access an extra field value from within javascript. How can I do this??


Here is what I have if it helps, it's take from the customer/main/product.tpl: I'm trying to Alert( {$v.field_value} )

   {foreach from=$extra_fields item=v}
   {if $v.service_name eq 'Audio_Playlist_Link' }
       {if $v.field_value ne ''}

               <div id="flashPlayer">
                This text will be replaced by the flash music player.
                {$v.field_value}
              </div>
              {literal}
              <script type="text/javascript">
                 var so = new SWFObject("http://mindandzen.com/skin1/audio/audioplayer.swf", "audioplayer", "300", "100", "7", "#FFFFFF");


                 alert("{$v.field_value}");

                 so.addVariable("xmlFile", $v.field_value );
                 so.write("flashPlayer");
              </script>
              {/literal}
       {/if}
  {/if}

The {literal} ... {/literal} means don't do anything smarty between those tags. You have two choices. Since you don't use any { or } in your javascript you can just remove the {literal} and {/literal}. If you think you might be adding in some ifs where you'll be using { and } you can either leave out the {literal} {/literal} and use {ldelim} and {rdelim} instead { and } in your javascript. Or you can leave in the {literal} {/literal} and change
{$v.field_value} to {/literal}{$v.field_value}{literal}.
