    Hi,

    I don't know why this isn't working, everything I've read says it should.  I have created a appkey variable in the web.config file and i'm now trying to read it in an aspx page within a javascript variable.

    The setup is below:

    web.config:

    <appSettings file="">

    <add key="webAccount" value="12345678" />

    My javascript variable in the aspx page:

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var setWebAccountNumber = '<%=ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["webAccount"].ToString() %>';

    The error I get is shown below:

    Compilation Error

    Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.
    Compiler Error Message: BC30203: Identifier expected.

    Line 34:         <!-- Begin Header -->
Line 35: <script type="text/javascript">
Line 36: var setWebAccountNumber = '<%=ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["webAccount"].ToString() %>';

    Hi, there is no error with your codes, I tested on my computer and found they worked. I suggest commenting the error line and try to print

    ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["webAccount"].ToString()

    with behind codes to check whether the value can be got properly.

    Default.aspx:

    <!DOCTYPE html>

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        //var setWebAccountNumber = '<%=ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["webAccount"].ToString() %>';
        //alert(setWebAccountNumber);
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

    Default.aspx.cs:

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string val = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["webAccount"].ToString();
            Response.Write(val);
        }

    thanks for the responses.

    I did was you suggestioned (I can't believe I never thought of that) and tested the values from the code behind.  It works fine.  I just seems that the errors are thrown when I put the same code values in the javascript of the header.   I can't figure out why, it should work.
