Question

I have a php variable called $VrHistorySlider, defined like this:

$VrHistorySlider.='<table border="0"><tr><td>(oldest)</td><td style="padding:0px 10px 0px 10px ;">&nbsp;&nbsp;<div id="note-slider-'.$VrNoteId.'" style="width:'.$VrSliderWidth.'px;background: url(\''.$VrSliderBGImg.'\') repeat-x ;" class="ui-slider ui-slider-horizontal ui-widget ui-widget-content ui-corner-all"></div>&nbsp;&nbsp;</td><td>(latest)</td></tr></table>';

Now I want to store it in a JavaScript variable. I tried this:

var slidercontent = <?= $VrHistorySlider ?>;

but it gives me this error:

unknown XML entity nbsp
<parent xmlns=""><table border="0"><tr...td>(latest)</td></tr></table></parent>

If not that, then how do I assign this $VrHistorySlider to the JavaScript variable slidercontent?

Answer 1

var slidercontent = <?php echo json_encode($VrHistorySlider); ?>;
