d3.tsv("//localhost/wordpress/" + my_var + ".tsv", function(d) {
d.frequency = +d.frequency;
return d;
}, function(error, data) {
if (error) throw error;
x.domain(data.map(function(d) { return d.letter; }));
y.domain([0, d3.max(data, function(d) { return d.frequency; })]);
I am trying to integrate the my_var variable successfully in the file path but it is not working. Can someone explain me why?
var my_var = <?php echo json_encode($title); ?>;
This
var my_var = <?php echo json_encode($title); ?>;
evaluates to:
var my_var = sometitle;
and sometitle is probably not defined. You want it to be a string:
var my_var = "<?php echo json_encode($title); ?>";
That is because my_var is not being treated as a placeholder for a string. Instead, my_var is being treated as a place holder for another variable named <?php echo json_encode($title); ?>. Make the following change and everything should work:
var my_var = "<?php echo json_encode($title); ?>";
var url = "//localhost/wordpress/"
url += my_var
url += ".tsv"
d3.tsv( url, function(d) {
d.frequency = +d.frequency;
return d;
}, function(error, data) {
if (error) throw error;
x.domain(data.map(function(d) { return d.letter; }));
y.domain([0, d3.max(data, function(d) { return d.frequency; })]);
