I'm placing an Amazon banner inside an angular material 2 card.But the problem is that it is not rendering.It shows empty div.What could be the reason.Below is the code showing how I did it.
<md-card class="full-width full-height border-box ">
<div class="adv">
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
var aax_size = '728x90';
var aax_pubname = 'XXXXXXXXXXX';
var aax_src = '302';
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="http://c.amazon-adsystem.com/aax2/assoc.js"></script>
</div>
</md-card>
I also tried to to bind it using property binding
<span [innerHTML]="advertisement()"></span>
advertisement(){
return `<div class="adv">
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
var aax_size = '728x90';
var aax_pubname = 'XXXXXXXXXXX';
var aax_src = '302';
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="http://c.amazon-adsystem.com/aax2/assoc.js"></script>
</div>`;
}
I also tried to dynamically add the div inside my card,it shows inside the div but the banner doesn't appear.Below is the code showing how I did that.
ngAfterViewInit() {
let x: HTMLElement = document.getElementById('adv');
let s: HTMLScriptElement = document.createElement('script');
s.type = 'text/javascript';
// s.language = 'javascript';
let code = `var aax_size = '728x90';
var aax_pubname = 'XXXXXXX';
var aax_src = '302';`;
let src = document.createElement('script');
src.type = 'text/javascript';
// src.language = 'javascript';
src.src = 'http://c.amazon-adsystem.com/aax2/assoc.js';
try {
s.appendChild(document.createTextNode(code));
x.appendChild(s);
x.appendChild(src);
} catch (e) {
s.text = code;
document.body.appendChild(s);
}
console.log(x);
}
After scrapping every post in SO regarding or similar to this question I did not find any solution to this.I followed almost everything in those posts but nothing was working for me.After that I came across postscribe library which does the externally loading of any third party script.
First I installed the library and imported it in my component
import * as postscribe from 'postscribe';
After that all I did was calling a function inside my ngAfterViewInit
function, by targetting the div
with its id
which in my case was adv
and passed the script
as a second parameter to this function.
ngAfterViewInit() {
postscribe('#adv', `<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
var aax_size='728x90';
var aax_pubname = 'XXXXXXXX';
var aax_src='302';
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="http://c.amazon-adsystem.com/aax2/assoc.js"></script>`);}
By doing this my banner was loaded.
