Question

Hi I am a newbie to java script. Have issues in passing the string variable whose value contains hyphen as function parameter. Fire bug throws an error saying ‘identifier starts immediately after numeric literal’

I am using flexigrid to display data. In each row have placed an image. On click of that image a java script function should be called. Setting up of flexigrid record content is done in java as below,

record.put("view","<img src='images/ic_text_document.png' onclick='view_content("+objid+")'/> ");

Value of the varible objid is something like this c2692d22-a407-4d38-85ee-5c16f25bcce7.
Firebug throws identifier starts immediately after numeric literal’ error by pointing at the 14th digit (in the above example at 4).

Tried passing the variable with different combination of quotes as suggested in other posts but dint work. Can somebody help me with this?

Answer 1

You should quote the objid value, like

record.put("view","<img src='images/ic_text_document.png' onclick='view_content(\""+objid+"\")'/> ");
