add a javascript variable as a class

[mtedwards]

Hi Guys,

I am working on a site where I want to query the location and then pass that as a class to a UL.

The location API I am using returns the variable I want as geoplugin_countryCode()

and the moment I am just hardcoding it in:

document.write(“

“);

What I would like to do is something like this:

That doesn’t seem to work, but not sure what I am doing wrong?

Thanks for any help.

@mtedwards,

Going towards what srig99 was saying, what kind of data type does that function return? You may have to parse it before adding it.

I took a look at that geoplugin, and im wondering… Do you have to set your own values for each function? I brought up the javascript.gp file and all the functions are blank? I don’t dabble with geolocation though so maybe im wrong.

Am i missing something?

function geoplugin_request() { return '174.50.237.221';}

function geoplugin_status() { return '403';}

function geoplugin_city() { return '';}

function geoplugin_region() { return '';}

function geoplugin_regionCode() { return '';}

function geoplugin_regionName() { return '';}

function geoplugin_areaCode() { return '';}

function geoplugin_dmaCode() { return '';}

function geoplugin_countryCode() { return '';}

function geoplugin_countryName() { return '';}

function geoplugin_continentCode() { return '';}

function geoplugin_latitude() { return '';}

function geoplugin_longitude() { return '';}

function geoplugin_currencyCode() { return '';}

function geoplugin_currencySymbol() { return '';}

function geoplugin_currencySymbol_UTF8() { return '';}

function geoplugin_currencyConverter(amt, symbol) { return false; }
