_set returning a variable with double quotes

phillipl

_set($ID, _getCellText(top.document.getElementById('ctl00_c_general_lblItemID')));

The above code is assigning a number enclosed with double quotes (e.g. "100" instead of just 100).

I am trying to call the variable $ID in a popup window:

_popup("Item [$ID]")._assert....

However the test is returning a failure as it is looking for "Item ["25"]", where it is supposed to be looking for "Item [25]".

Is there any way to get rid of these double quotes?

Hi,

You have to lookout for a way to get the numeric value. Try this:

_set($ID, _getCellText(top.document.getElementById('ctl00_c_general_lblItemID')).match(/\d*/);

_popup("Item [" + $ID + "]")._assert....

Try if this works.

_popup("Item [" + $ID + "]") is the correct way.

Don't use _popup("Item [$ID]"). It may work, but not recommended.
