As I develop a basic asp.net application, I encountered a situation where I needed to include a script with a dynamic query parameter in my aspx page.
For instance:
<script src="../javascript/script.js?v=#var#" type="text/javascript"></script>
In the given code snippet, the script path allows for different query parameters to be inserted instead of #var#.
I attempted to extract the parameter value from code behind using the following code.
<script src="../javascript/script.js?v=<%# myVar %>" type="text/javascript"></script>
However, <%# myVar %> returns an empty value. By substituting = for #, the code works perfectly when the script reference is added at the end of the page.
Nevertheless, this approach only functions when the script is referenced at the bottom of the page; otherwise, an error will be thrown.
"The Controls collection cannot be modified because the control contains code blocks (i.e. `<%= %>`)."
Thus, my query remains, "Is there an alternative method to achieve the same outcome?"
