The substitution forms (e.g. $variable$, $(external variable)$ only work
INSIDE a macro. So you have to
put
<div style=<<nowandthen m:11 v:2>>><<nowandthen m:11 v:"$(bgcol)$">
>"$(bgcol)$"</div>
inside its own macro like:
\define misnamedmacro()
<div style=<<nowandthen m:11 v:2>>><<nowandthen m:11 v:"$(bgcol)$">
>"$(bgcol)$"</div>
\end
and call it:
<$set name=bgcol value="7">
<<misnamedmacro>>
</$set>
Of course, there could be other things inside the JS macro that are wrong,
but that's what's wrong out of the box.
Good luck!
