Got error: Identifier expected on

JavaScript

var myURL = '<%=ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["myURL"].ToString() %>';
....
// In my Web.Config
  <appSettings>
    <add key="myURL" value="http://..." />

I could not figure out where the bug is. Appreciate if you can point out.

Solution 2

Add this on the top of your page,

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Configuration" %>

or use fully qualified namespace to use ConfigurationManager :-)

Added the line either before or after <html> tag, but the error still exists. I have another aspx file, which contains the same code and works well w/o adding the 'Import' line. The problem reported here is in a .html file. Then, I created a new .aspx file w/ the code in the previous .html file, the problem was gone. Thanks.
