Passing a variable to javescript

[Otto]

Dear Antonio,

passing a variable to javescript I use:

<s cript>
var cTimeDate = <?prg f_timeDate() ?>
</s cript>

function f_timeDate()
local cDatum_Zeit := ""

cDatum_Zeit := "'" + dtoC(date()) + " " + time() + "'"
? cDatum_Zeit

return cDatum_Zeit

//----------------------------------------------------------------//


I seems to me that function is read 2 times. Is this the correct way to get variables from Harbour to JS.

Best regards
Otto

A simpler way:

Code: Select all  Expand view  RUN

<s cript>
var cTimeDate = '{{dtoC(date()) + " " + time()}}';
</s cript>

Dear Antonio,
this is only a sample. Sometimes you have very functions with many lines. Should we program a mechanism that a functions does not execute on loading the page at first.
And it yes how can this be done.

Dear Otto,

> Should we program a mechanism that a functions does not execute on loading the page at first

It will always execute on loading the page at first only

If you want to execute Harbour code later on, then you need to call the server again using Ajax (jquery)
