Hi,

I'm trying to put a small piece of Javascript on the Template.html page to fix a bug with the attribute output in DNN. Currently it outputs all attribute values as value1,value2,value3 etc - which is very untidy on the final page. So I managed to put together a javascript function that splits the attributes string into an array, and then outputs it back with spaces.

IN TEMPLATE.HTML

<script type="text/javascript">
var myString = ' [Attributes:Procedure Area]';
var mySplitResult = myString.split(",");
for(splitstring = 0; splitstring < mySplitResult.length; splitstring++){
document.write(mySplitResult[splitstring] + ", "); }
</script>

IN OUTPUT CODE

<script type="text/javascript">

var myString = '<span class="normal">All Countries,Asia,Europe,Latin America,Costa Rica,Malaysia,Singapore,South Korea,Taiwan,Turkey</span>';
var mySplitResult = myString.split(",");
for(splitstring = 0; splitstring < mySplitResult.length; splitstring++){
document.write(mySplitResult + ", "); }

</script>

Note: I've lost the [splitstring] in the output from DNN as it intepretes this as a tag. Is there a way of escaping this? I'm not a Javascript guru! thanks for any help.

Is this a template for a specific module?

try putting your javascript code in the module 'header' or 'footer' and not in the actual template so that the template engine will not interpret the bracketed text as a token

Module Settings -> Advanced Settings - > Header

or

Module Settings -> Advanced Settings - > Footer
