Answer 1

Firstly, if the variable is private you will not be able to access it in your JavaScript so you should use the public Heading property instead.

Secondly, you have a semi colon in your JavaScript which needs to be removed so change this line

var someProp = "<%= this._Heading; %>";

To this

var someProp = "<%=this.Heading%>";
