Static Resource > How To Dynamically Bind The Reference Name in VIsualforce Page

Hello,

 

I have static resource in ise in my visualforce pages.  These work well.  To include them I do something similar to the following.

 

<apex:includeScript value="{!URLFOR($Resource.Content_TestSite_HtmlAndScripts, '/scripts/bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.js')}"/>  

 

I wish to change this though to dynamically pass in the resource name that I require.

 

E.g. <apex:includeScript value="{!URLFOR($Resource.{resourceParameterName}, '/scripts/bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.js')}"/>

 

Or <apex:includeScript value="{!URLFOR($Resource.Content_{resourceParameterNa}_HtmlAndScripts, '/scripts/bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.js')}"/>

 

When I try to save this in my IDE I get syntaz errors though.

 

Do you know if what I'm trying to do is possible & if so can both ways I'm trying to set the name above work?

 

Thanks in advance.

Try accessing it like array instead of (.) Dot operator.

example: (Note- resourceParameterName is a variable, not string)

1.
<apex:includeScript value="{!URLFOR($Resource[resourceParameterName], '/scripts/bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.js')}"/>
2.
<apex:includeScript value="{!URLFOR($Resource['Content_'+resourceParameterNa+'_HtmlAndScripts'], '/scripts/bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.js')}"/>

 Hope it helps.
