What would be the correct way to accomplish this ?
var parameter = json.Parameter;
switch (foo)
{
case "0" : foo = "There is no link";
break;
case "1" : foo = "Here is a link : <a href=\"www.alink.com/?" + parameter + "\">Link B</a>";
break;
}
$("#result").append( foo);
The way I tried this b would just look print "Here is a link : " but not the actual link.
You can invoke the pretty unknown method .link() like:
links = "Here is a link: " + "Link B".link("http://www.google.com");
$("#result").append( links );
That is cross-browser since Netscape navigator days. However, I guess your actuall problem was that you didn't quote the value of the href attribute. But, you can just use .link() to be fine here.
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/SNHeW/
try altering ' and "
foo = "Here is a link : <a href='http://www.alink.com/?" + parameter + "'>Link B</a>"
http protocol partWhen I try it, it adds the link just fine:
You need a http:// in the URL for it to work, though.
Javascript:
var foo = '1';
var parameter = 'asdf';
switch (foo) {
case "0" :
foo = "There is no link";
break;
case "1" :
foo = "Here is a link : <a href=\"http://www.alink.com/?" + parameter + "\">Link B</a>";
break;
}
$("#result").append(foo);
HTML:
<div id="result"></div>
