Question about Javascript variable

Question about Javascript variable

Hi, 

I'm new to Javascript so wondering if you can validate that this could work properly. 

On an A/B test page variation, i need to include a link where the href is dynamic replaced, depending on the page visited. I intend to ask the developer to add a javascript variable with the value that I need, then I can use the variable at pageSense test. 

I would ask him do add this line of code: 

  1. <script>
  2. var buttonUrl = "http://www.test.com/a";
  3. </script>

Then, at pageSense JS editor, I would add a code like this: 

  1. document.getElementById("bookNowABTest").href = buttonUrl;

... to replace the #bookNowABTest href value to the buttonUrl variable value. 

Would that work properly? 

Concern: 
* I'm firing the Asynchronous script version over Google Tag Manager. Does that means that there's a chance that the variable buttonUrl is not defined when page sense script is loaded, causing my href to not be replaced properly to the correct value? 

Thanks!

      • CSS not loading in heat map view

        I ran into a problem with two different websites where when I view the heat map experiment, the CSS for the page is not loaded under the heat map overlay. When going to the page directly, everything looks fine. The page also looks right on the Experiments page where a screenshot is used as the thumbnail... The sites are both WordPress websites. I've tried both the regular snippet and async. I'm hoping this has been seen before and there's a solution. Thanks!
