  • 0

I’m trying to get the value of my div into Javascript. It’s a Drupal website and I want to convert currencies and displaying them in a javascript popup.

So far I have this: 

<?php 
        print "<script type='text/javascript'>";
        $rate=currency_api_convert("HKD", "CNY");
        print "exchangerate = ".$rate["value"].";";

        print "var $displaycur = getElementById('record-price');";
        print "$displaycur;";

        print "</script>";
?>

And all I get in my browers is:

<script type="text/javascript">
        exchangerate = 0.8406;var  = getElementById('record-price');;
</script>

Although I know the reason why it’s displayed like this, I still don’t know how to get the ID of the div in a proper variable.
Any ideas? Should I use innerHTML?

UPDATE:
A part of the source files:
page.tpl.php

        print "<script type='text/javascript'>";
        $rate=currency_api_convert("HKD", "CNY");
        print "exchangerate = ".$rate["value"].";";
        print "</script>";
    ?>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function showCurrency() {
            alert('$rate');
        }
    </script>
    <!--[if lte IE 7]>
      <?php print phptemplate_get_ie_styles(); ?>
    <![endif]-->

        <!--[if IE 6]>
            <style type="text/css">
                .fg-menu-ipod .fg-menu li { width: 95%; }
                .fg-menu-ipod .ui-widget-content { border:0; }
                .views-field-field-performer-value { margin-left:-150px;}
                .views-field-field-instruments-value { margin-left:-150px;}
                .coda-nav{display:block; position:absolute; width:400px;height:20px;top:260px;right:100px;z-index:125421;}  </style>
        <![endif]-->


  </head>
  <body<?php print phptemplate_body_class($left, $right); ?>>

And the node-record.tpl.php:

print '<div id="part1-right-line3">';   
    print '<div id="record-price">';                                                        
    print uc_currency_format($node->sell_price);
    print '</div>';                     
    print '</div>'; 
    print '<div id="part1-right-line4">';   
    print '<div id="add-to-cart">';     
    print drupal_get_form('uc_product_add_to_cart_form_'. $node->nid, $node);
    print '</div>'; 
    print '</div>';
    print '</div>';

And here is the output:

    <?php 
   print "<script type='text/javascript'>\n";
   $rate=currency_api_convert("HKD", "CNY");
   print "exchangerate = ".$rate["value"].";\n";
   print "var displaycur = document.getElementById('record-price');\n";
   print "alert(displaycur.innerHTML);\n";
   print "</script>\n";
?>

    I guess ‘record-price’ is ID of your DIV… so displaycur.innerHTML will have everything between <div> and </div>.

    EDIT:

    function showCurrency() {
  alert(document.getElementById('record-price').innerHTML);
  }
