If "document.EmailTemplates.returnto" is a form field, hidden or text, then
you need to add .value to the end of it

otherwise, where is "document.EmailTemplates.returnto" coming from?

Subject: [cfaussie] Passing CF variable to javascript


As someone who never learned a lot about javascript  (and found there
was little i wanted to do that i couldnt do with ColdFusion tags) I'm
now forced to do a little function in javascript, and i cant do what i
normally do - pinch a working bit of code from somewhere else and
modify that.

What i need is the javascript equivalent of this:  (#returnto# is a
variable to return the user to one of several locations depending on
the context)

<cfif returnto IS "library">
 <cflocation url="library.cfm">
<cfelseif returnto IS "campaign">
  <cflocation url="campaign.cfm">
<cfelse>
 <cflocation url="index.cfm">
</cfif>

Here's what i have so far,  and if anyone can make it so that it
works, I'll be most grateful!!:

function EmailEdit(emailID)   {
                     var returnto = "";
        document.EmailTemplates.target = "";

if(document.EmailTemplates.returnto == "library"){
        document.EmailTemplates.action =
"EmailEdit.cfm?returnto="+document.EmailTemplates.returnto+"&emailId="+email
ID;
        }
        else {
        document.EmailTemplates.action = "EmailEdit.cfm?emailId="+emailID;
        }
        document.EmailTemplates.submit();
}
