Passing JavaScript Parameters via URL...

[Anon]

Assuming my main page has this in it:

[SCRIPT LANGUAGE='JavaScript'
SRC='http://zineco.com/test.js?val=1829'
TYPE='text/javascript']
[/SCRIPT]

Can someone tell me how I can get "test.js" to read the parameter (val) that was passed to it? PLEASE NOTE: the main page does not
pass the parameter, it is embedded directly
in the script call, per the above.

I can't get my "test.js" to read a parameter
that's embedded in the SRC call as above, I
can only get it to read it if it's part of
the "main page" URL. I need it to work for
the SRC call, per the example. Anyone know
how to do this??

You should pass the variable to php and make it pass it to the javascript.
BTW, squared brakets?!

The particular portion of code I showed does not have any PHP. It's a unique case, in that I need to pass a variable that is appended to a javascript. Please look at my example again.

As for the square brackets, that's to prevent
this forum from interpreting them as HTML.
Not all forums handle those type of posts
correctly.
