    Resolved [RESOLVED] backbone.js noob question


    So I've found myself stuck with make mods to a front-end application with backbone.js. There seems to be these inline data bound elements like this:

    Code:
    <div class="alert alert-danger">
                The total amount to be charged to your credit card will be the policy payment amount plus a ${{convenienceFee}} convenience fee. 
            </div>
    How do I access that {{convenienceFee}} in javascript?
    I always add to the reputation of those whose posts are helpful, and even occasionally to those whose posts aren't helpful but who obviously put forth a valiant effort. That is, when the system will allow it.

    You don't... well, not exactly. Not familiar with backbone, but it sounds like it's similar to node.js or angular, which means that it's MVC based... so your convenienceFee is in the model, and that's where you have direct access to it... The snip you posted is the view, which means it's (if you're following MVC) just the display and isn't to be manipulated here... it should already be done by the model.

    Thanks TG - I'll take a look a the model (well, see if I can figure out which one it is) and let you know how that goes.

    Yep, sure enough - found the property on one of the models. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction TG.
