Reply To: Concatenating Strings

[Jeremy]

Hi Doug,

PennController elements, and Text elements in particular, are not strings, so you cannot just concatenate them to a string with +. More info here: https://doc.pcibex.net/how-to-guides/using-javascript/

Here’s how to achieve what you need:

newVar("link")
  .set(getVar("pID"))
  .set(v=>"<p><a href='https://pitt.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9suLiT1t7sABeDg?id="+v+"' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer'>Click here to complete a brief survey on Qualtrics.</a></p>")
,
newText("")
  .text(getVar("link"))
  .center()
  .print()
