Javascript var inside document.write

[cthood]

I have this code which is dynamically generated from an ad server:

Code: Select all

document.write ('<script type="text/javascript"> var introclip =\n');
document.write ('"http://oascentral.domain.com/RealMedia/ads/adstream_lx.ads/domain.com/domain/home.do/2013086587/Frame1/domain/co/4151461/34316665653032353435666332393430"; </script> \n');
document.write ('<img src="http://bbeplayer.com/Tracking/V3/Instream/Impression/?0|528|4348|2044|513|869|http%3A//ad.doubleclick.net/ad/N2870.CoCo/B1847568.21%3Bsz%3D1x1%3Bord%3D%5Btimestamp%5D%3F|BBEEND|" border=0>');

I would like to be able to read the var introclip and use it somewhere else in my script or page. I can't seem to be able to read the variable at all though. Any thoughts?

Thanks.

That's because you have an incorrect character.
See at line 2-- the last word
It says "</script>"
The browser thinks that it's the end of the script there, so you would have to put an antislash in front of the / so the browser doesn't count it as the end of the script.
So when done it would be:

Code: Select all

document.write ('<script type="text/javascript"> var introclip =\n');
document.write ('"http://oascentral.domain.com/RealMedia/ads/adstream_lx.ads/domain.com/domain/home.do/2013086587/Frame1/domain/co/4151461/34316665653032353435666332393430"; <\/script> \n');
document.write ('<img src="http://bbeplayer.com/Tracking/V3/Instream/Impression/?0|528|4348|2044|513|869|http%3A//ad.doubleclick.net/ad/N2870.CoCo/B1847568.21%3Bsz%3D1x1%3Bord%3D%5Btimestamp%5D%3F|BBEEND|" border=0>');

And just put a code to read the variable:

Code: Select all

alert(introclip)

And you're done!
