EJS access express variable in JS onload function

问题

I know you can get the value of variables in an ejs file like so,

<h1><%= title %></h1>

if i were to use the same title variable in a onload javascript function in the same ejs page, how would i use it . for instance

<script>
window.onload(){
var s = <%= title %>
alert(s);
}
</script>

this function produces a console error saying

Uncaught syntax error: Unexpected identifier

although I'm able to see the actual value of the variable

回答1:

To output it within a script, the result will need to be understood as code.

Since you didn't note the value of title, I'll assume for the examples:

res.render('view', { title: 'My Site' });

When you use var s = <%= title %>, this results in creating the statement as:

var s = My Site

In this, My and Site are interpreted as individual variables separated only by an unexpected space. The engine is confused when it reaches Site without an operator between them, thus the Unexpected identifier you're getting.

It needs to instead create the statement:

var s = "My Site"

So the client script can also understand it as a string value.

One trick to accomplishing this is using JSON.stringify(). Since JSON took its syntax from JavaScript's expressions and literals, a JavaScript engine is capable of making sense of the result in many contexts (though, with its own take on strings, objects, etc.):

var s = <%- JSON.stringify(title) %>

Note, though, the switch to using <%- %> vs. <%= %>. This will disable HTML encoding, which is unnecessary and can lead to odd results inside of a <script>.

I think you should try: html:

<h1 id="title"><%= title %></h1>

Js:

  <script>
    window.onload(){
    var s = document.getElementById("title").innerText;
    alert(s);
    }
  </script>
