Write value in layer using eval

[HareshKarkar]

Hi ,
I'm calling some Javascript function to write value in the layer. I'm trying to achieve it by using eval() function. Please look at the code below:

[CODE=javascript]function showMore(tempLa yerNum, tempLayerName) {

var temp = "step"+tempLaye rNum+"More".toS tring();
eval(temp).writ e("Hi");

}
[/CODE]
This is very simple code but still not working. Some other place same type of statement is working. Any idea what mistake I'm making here...

Regards,
Haresh

hi ...

welcome to TSDN ...

i would never recommend to use eval besides the need to evaluate json-data ... in case you simply want to add text to a html-node use something like the following:

[CODE=javascript]
var layer = document.getEle mentById('your_ layer_id');
var text = 'whatever_text_ may_include_mar kup';

layer.innerHTML = text;
[/CODE]

kind regards

You don't need to use eval for this. Show the HTML code for the layer.
