I am talking about;

<script type="text/javascript">var MODX_MEDIA_PATH = "media";</script>

Where does this come from, how do I get rid of it (do I need it?). This is the first time I have seen this, just to be sure, I checked my google caches and it is not in there.

... enlighten me

Thanks!

It’s set in manager/includes/header.inc.php.

It’s used in the function getTVDisplayFormat().

No need to worry about that. I think it has to do with the cache and left overs from a manager sessions. It will show if you are logged in as manager (i think it will show if anyone is logged in as manager, not necessarily you, but I am not sure), but if no one is logged in and the cache cleared then it should not show (but sometimes still does).

I have seen this mentioned a few times in the forum but don’t recall a solution for getting rid of it.

Hello guys

i just use a plugin to remove it from the source. I use it in several sites and no complains. I think its really not necessary for the frontend-show.

event: OnWebPagePrerender

$e = &$modx->Event;
switch( $e->name )
{
    case 'OnWebPagePrerender':
        $o = &$modx->documentOutput;
        $o = preg_replace( '|<script type="text/javascript">var MODX_MEDIA_PATH = "media";</script>|si', '', $o );
    break;
    default :
    return;
    break;
}

hope it helps.
adios, Stefan
