Symphony.

Hi guys, hope for your help. How can I use xsl value:

<xsl:value-of select="/data/player/title" /> 

in jquery code (audio.js):

var title = '<xsl:value-of select="/data/player/title" />';

  markup: '
        <div class="controls"> 
            <div class="download"></div> 
            <div class="play-pause"> 
                <p class="play"></p> 
                <p class="pause"></p> 
                <p class="error"></p> 
            </div> 
        </div>  
        <div class="title"> ' +title+ ' </div>
        <div class="scrubber"> 
                <div class="progress"></div> 
                <div class="loaded"></div> 
        </div>'

Now i see a plain text.

Are you trying to embed the "jquery" code in you xsl stylesheet? if so then you might wrap the codestring inside a CDATA section:

<![CDATA[&lt;script> var title = ]]><xsl:value-of select="/data/player/title" /><![CDATA[; … //rest of your code]]>

You'd have to set the value in your XSLT style-sheet and not in the javascript file itself. As in the JS file no XSLT would work, then you can use the variable in your javascript without a problem. If its just a variable most of the time you do not need CDATA blocks.

ok, it works if js code in xslt file, but if it's script external i can't use this, no solutions?

If you want the value, but keep your JavaScript in an external file then you have several options if you think about it.

• use XSLT to generate the external JS file itself (don't bother with this, it's painful)
• write the value into your page as JavaScript variables/objects, as above, then load your JavaScript after this to read the value
• write the value into your page HTML (e.g. in data attributes) which JavaScript can then parse
