Portals: Is it possible to pass a Liquid variable to a JS function?

Hello everyone,

I am working on a custom template on Portal and I was wondering if it is possible to pass to a JS function as parameter a Liquid variable.

Was not able to find a way to do this so far, maybe anyone has more knwoledge on Liquid - JS interaction ...

....

.....

 {% assign test = 0 %}

...

..

<script type="text/javascript" charset="UTF-8" >

function showMsg(test ) {

.....

....

}

</script>

Many thanks in advance,

Irena.
