Question

I’m having trouble finding a bug in my JavaScript code. It tells me a runtime error has occurred: Expected ')'

Here is the code:

<xsl:for-each select="./projects/project">                      
    <script LANGUAGE='Javascript'>                  
    x = 0;
    if(x == 0) {
        document.write("<td style="background-color:#76787A" ><xsl:value-of  select="weight"/></td>")
    }
    else
    {
        document.write("<td><xsl:value-of select="weight"/></td>")
    }
    </script>                       
</xsl:for-each>

What do you think?

Answer 1

You are not escaping your strings properly. If you look closely, the syntax highlighting here on SO shows you the problem.

Use escaped \" or single quotes ' when using quotes inside a string.

document.write("<td style='background-color:#76787A' >
                <xsl:value-of  select='weight'/></td>")
