I am looking for a way to display the links to the news items in a kind of java script ticker.
The problem so far is feeding the data into the 'var' within the java script.
Does anyone know of a good way of doing this ? i.e. generating the j.s. script dynamically.

Thanks,

Paul

to summarise once again:

I am using an include pair, in which I put the javascript.

The adp is ok. I define the content variable:
var scrollcontent='@vardefinedintcl@'

in tcl:
set vardefineintcl {}

now is a question of appending this vardefineintcl with the content values of an etp instance (the content of the subtopic)

I hope this makes sense.

Any help is as always much appreciated.

Thanks,

i meant < br > is not interpreted

Steve, thanks a million.

I'll give my tcl for future reference:

# /packages/edit-this-page/templates/article-index.tcl


#etp::get_page_attributes
etp::get_content_items

etp::get_content_items -package_id 978 -result_name topics

template::multirow foreach topics {
  set url [site_node::get_url_from_object_id -object_id 978]${url}
  append content "<a href=\"$url\"> $title </a> <br>"

An even better way to do this would to use Ajax, which means your Javascript gets the dynamic data itself.
