Absolute link publishing within JS file output

Hi there,
Have a quick question, something easy I'm sure but I'm overlooking. I'm writing a javascript file, which is generated from content entered into a data-definition block. (see attached). To have the Js file output work, and be usable within Cascade, I'm using the

<!--#cascade-skip--><system-region name="DEFAULT"/><!--#cascade-skip--> as the template, and the format (attached) to output the following javascript.

This data definition / format combo works well for what i need it to do (once its published that is) however in Cascade, it doesn't play nice.

I tried using the link attribute from my page chooser, however when the script is output, then I get the site:/// which doesn't work for either.

Its like the interpreter is ignoring the link re-writing. Any ideas are always appreciated. Thanks so much!

   Hi Brendon,

   Sounds as though the links are not being tracked within Cascade. Have you tried surrounding the value of the href attribute with a [system-asset] pseudo tag? This will force Cascade to track the link.

   Please let me know if you have any questions.

   Thanks!

   I knew it was something small.

   Brilliant. Thanks!

   Glad to hear that did the trick, Brendon.

   I'm going to go ahead and close this discussion, please feel free to comment or reply to re-open if you have any additional questions.
