copied!<p>I'm trying to understand why you need to pass the variable as a string and why you want to access <code>cont</code> via the <code>window</code> object. This does what it looks like you expected your code to do:</p> <pre><code>process = function (str) { alert(str); // This will alert 'once there lived a king named midas' } validate = function () { var cont = 'once there lived a king named midas'; process(cont); } validate(); </code></pre> <p>FYI: It is generally considered bad practice to declare global variables, especially in a case like this where you don't appear to need them. (I could'd we wrong, though; I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to accomplish)</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> I would suggest using some functions and passing some variables around rather than mucking around with <code>eval()</code>-esque variable references. For example, you could implement <code>makeParam</code> like so:</p> <pre><code>var cont = 'Boggis, Bunce, and Bean.', makeParam = function(str) { var param = '', i = 0, arg = str.split(','), l = arg.length; while (i < l) { if (arg[i + 1].match(/\([a-zA-Z]+\)/)) { // No reason to capture param += [arg[1], cont].join('='); i += 2; } else if (arg[i].match(/\/[a-zA-Z]+\//)) { // No reason to capture param += [ arg[i], document.getElementById(arg[i]).value ].join('='); i += 1; } else { param += [arg[i], arg[i + 1]].join('='); i += 2; } param += (i + 1 === l) ? '' : '&'; } return param; }; param = makeParam('command,insert,/title/,/keywords/,/description/,mode,[1],fckcontent, (cont)'); param === 'command=insert&\ keywords=somekeywords&\ description=somedescription&\ mode=1&\ fckcontent=Boggis, Bunce, and Bean.'; </code></pre> <p>But you'd probably want to pass <code>cont</code> into your <code>makeParam</code> function.</p>
