Re: Render Javascript code

You probably also need to use the "safe" filter, {{variable_name|safe}}.

Hello, 

I am using Django and have an expensive computing process that takes about 12 or 13 hours and generates javascript charts.

When you say JS charts, are you simply referring to data sets, or actual JS that includes your data sets?

I did the computing using the management command and stored the charts in the models as TextField.

My question is how to display this javascript code on the template? using

{{ variable_name }}

results in plain javascript text

and using 

<script type="javascript">      {{ variable_name}}  </script>

results in hidden text with special characters.

JS code will not show when properly identified as JS code. Without surrounding it in <script> tags, the browser will take your code as plain text content and display it rather than interpreting it as JS code.

That's step one. Step two is adding a function to execute the code you've provided with other functions. Without knowing what code you are generating, I can't say for sure what you need.
