I see at least 2 more robust ways: * Loading map items in another JSON request or as an embedded JSON string in a hidden <textarea> or something. Then your JS code can simply JSON.parse() the data and no other code generation is required. * Using data-attributes that can be parsed using completely static JS code: <div id="map" data-width="600" data-height="200">. You could imagine storing map items as DOM elements with data-attributes attached. Bruno -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
