PHP/JavaScript environment variables
These variables contain information about the Zenario content item being served, the identity of who's logged in, and other environment variables.
You can access them from PHP code (in a module) using syntax of the form:
ze::$variableName
Most can also be accessed from JavaScript code, see the individual description pages. They can be accessed using the following syntax:
zOnLoad(function() {
zenario.variableName
});
Example
To show content item ID and type variables in JavaScript, write this in a Raw HTML/JavaScript snippet plugin, or in JavaScript applied to content items, layouts, or site-wide:
console.log(zenario.cID);
console.log(zenario.cType);
This example should display the currently viewed content item's ID and type in the browser's console.
Environment variables are defined in zenario/basicheader.inc.php and may be populated in the autoload classes, as well as zenario/js/visitor.js file
