Excellent point.  But in my defense, I simply copied the script block Ken had higher up in the page.

I've googled for this, but can't find the answer...

I need to reference an image in JavaScript. Unfortunately, the link (obviously) contains backslashes, which need to be escaped in JavaScript. So I have done this:

var Image = "$DPIMAGES.image.gif";
Image = Image.replace("\\","\\\\");

But Image ends up containing just "file://C:Documents and SettingsRanderApplication DataDVD ProfilerTempDesignImage.gif" - all the backslashes have gone...

What to do?

The backslashes need to be escaped before they become part of the javascript string - in the code you gave, the backslashes are removed by the JScript engine as it parses the first line of your script. Consequently, the second line isn't actually doing anything at all.

I haven't played around with v3 much yet, so there might be a variable in HEADER_VARS that you can use (if not, then please add it Ken!). Otherwise you'll need to do something like this (untested).

<img src="$DPIMAGES.image.gif" id="myImage" />

<script type="text/javascript">
var Image = document.getElementById("myImage"); //reference to <IMG> element
var ImagePath = Image.getAttribute("src"); //the path to the image - which will be automatically escaped
</script>

As I had a similar problem, Ken added the following variables into the header section, which work fine for me. 

Quoting Ken Cole:
Quote:
3.0.1 has the following new variables generated for the DP_HEADER_VARS tags:
DP_ProgramLayoutName
DP_ProgramDatabaseName
DP_ProgramPathDatabase
DP_ProgramPathImages
DP_ProgramPathThumbnails
DP_ProgramPathLayouts
DP_ProgramPathReports
DP_ProgramPathTemp
DP_ProgramPathProgram

Additionally, I've doubled the \ chars in the paths.
