    How can set a js var to the value of a page property of the current page

    API Questions

    I have tried this:

    <script type="text/javascript">

    function foo()
    {
    var myprop = '<umbraco:item field="propField" runat="server" />';
    }
    </script>


    comes back empty

    then I tried this:

    <script type="text/javascript">

    function foo()
    {
    var myprop = '<%= umbraco.presentation.nodeFactory.Node.GetCurrent().GetProperty("myProp").Value %>';
    }
    </script>

    for some reason GetCurrent() does not return the current page but the home page?

    any ideas

    maybe this examples will help:

    this example is a working code inside razor macro:

     

    <script type="text/javascript">  
        @{
            var rootNode = Model.AncestorOrSelf(1);
            var thankYouNode = rootNode.ThankYouPage.First();
        }  
        var thankYouUrl = "@umbraco.library.NiceUrl(thankYouNode.Id)";
    </script>

    and this is working code inside xslt macro:

     

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var languageID =  "<xsl:value-of select='$languageID' />";
    </script>

    now you change the values that you need for your purpose, for example get the CurrentModel properties, etc.
