This works fine:

{exp:channel:entries channel="mychannel" limit="1" url_title="{segment_3}"}
$.dpSocialBar(
{
    items: {
                                    twitter: { url: '{twittermember}', text: '{title} on twitter' },
    },

   });
 {/exp:channel:entries}

ie the channel fields twittermember and title are made available to the javascript. If I include a conditional to test for the field it breaks

{exp:channel:entries channel="mychannel" limit="1" url_title="{segment_3}"}
$.dpSocialBar(
{
    items: {
                                    {if twittermember !=""}
                                    twitter: { url: '{twittermember}', text: '{title} on twitter' },
                                    {/if}
    },

   });
 {/exp:channel:entries}

I’ve just noticed this post, http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/200960/ . John says you cannot use ee conditionals within javascript in which case how can I test for the existence of the ee field?

Managed to sort this one!  Apparently advanced conditionals within javascript blocks do not get parsed,  To turn this off you enter the following in ee/config/config.php:
$config[‘protect_javascript’] = ‘n’;

Glad to see you resolved it, jackiewales. If there’s anything else I can help with, please just let me know!
