CP9 getVariableValue not pulling through value.
Version : CP9 9.0.2.437
OS : Windows 7
Output : HTML5 only
Type : Non responsive
Hello,
I hate asking questions with a whole load of code, so apologies in advance, but it is just one line that is the problem.
I have placed some java in a HTML page.
I have used a Web Object to display the HTML page on a Captivate Slide, and display on the slide.
I am trying to get the java in the HTML page to use a value from a Captivate User variable using the code: var tmpROLE = window.cpAPIInterface.getVariableValue("varRole");
Unfortunately the code does not work.
The Captivate User variable "varRole" does exist as I'm using it throughout the project.
If I change the line to 'hard code' a dummy test value, the code works: var tmpROLE = "DOCTOR";
Therefore I can only think that there is something wrong with the code window.cpAPIInterface.getVariableValue("varRole");
Can anyone see anything obviously wrong?
Thank you
Peter
This is the code in question, please don't be too cruel about it, I'm not a programmer.
