Print or echo javascript variable, not document, but be a value or part of a value for a DOM element, specifically for a form action

I have a form action that needs to have a value set from a variable. I need to set a variable once and it will appear many times in the DOM.

So:

variable = "somthing.html"; ...

This will make all FORMs get the action of the variable:



<script src="jquery-1.2.6.pack.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
    var variable = "something.html";
    $('form').attr("action", variable);
});
</script>

Then you can change the action of the form to be equal to the variable name. Something like the following.

var variableName = "myform.htm";

this.form.action = variableName;


Edit, you can also do this with other elements as with any other javascript snippet, using things like "getElementById ()" to get the elements from the DOM

I'm not sure if this is what you are asking for, but you can change the document action like this:

document.formname.action = "something.html";
