I am getting error when generating javascript dynamically like so:

$(document).ready(function(){
  $("#$this->AddURLSegment").colorbox();
}

HTML:

<a href="<?php echo $AddURLSegment;?>?width=500&height=500&iframe=false" id="<?php rcho $AddURLSegment;?>">Add</a>

Error: First click on Add:

uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #

Second time:

ab.html(a.close).show is not a function
uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #

and 2 overlays open, one good and one broken.

! When i hardcode the selectors (ID name) like so...., it works.

$("#add").colorbox();

What is gong on here!?

EDIT:

Im doing this in silverstripe cms

The javascript (noconflict) is generated in Controller::init()

 Requirements::customScript('

            $j(document).ready(function(){
                $j("#'.$this->AddURLSegment.'").colorbox();
            });
');

The Html 开发者_开发知识库stuff is in View.

*SilverStripe is based on MVC paradigm.

Your problem is that you are trying to access $this->AddURLSegment from within Controller::init(). The AddURLSegment method is not available within the controller class. You need to call that in a subclass of controller. Most SilverStripe pages look like this:

Page extends SiteTree { }

Page_Controller extends ContentController { public init() { Requirements::customScript(...); } }

So, add the customScript into the controller of the page type you are using. That should make it work.
