Hi all,

 

A simple one but it seems I am running into trouble.

 

All I want is to add a JavaScript variable to the html body as part of an <a> tag, eg: <a href="JAVASCRIPT VARIABLE">Click Me</a>

 

Here what I have:

 

<div class="headerrefresh"><script>document.write('<a href="'+pathname+'">Refresh</a>')</script></div>

 

Any help woud be very appreciated!

 

Thanks!

Not sure if you have found the answer already but based on your above something like this will work

<div class="headerrefresh"><script>var pathname = 'bob';</script><script>document.write('<a href="'+pathname+'">Refresh</a>')</script></div>

 

basically you need to declare the var before using it then you can use it however you want later in the page.
