I am using the value of a field in the page as a variable. I am trying to use it in the page somewhere else but I think that there is a problem with the cache because the value is sometimes available and sometimes not.
I have the following:
$elements['#attached']['drupalSettings']['pdf_app_height'] = $password;
and then in a .js file I have:
(function ($, Drupal, drupalSettings) {
'use strict';
Drupal.behaviors.pdf_appAccessData = {
attach: function (context) {
value = drupalSettings.pdf_app_height;
alert(value);
window.xx = drupalSettings.pdf_app_height;
}
};
})(jQuery, Drupal, drupalSettings);
The alert (value) always shows the right value but I am using on the page somewhere else the following javascript code:
alert(xx);
Sometimes it is showing the right value and sometimes undefined. Any ideas?
I have seen the answer if we are talking about configuration changes (How do I avoid having to clear the cache when changing a module configuration parameter?) but I don't know how to use it here.
