Referencing issues within JS script #106

Not an issue I don't think, but I am having issues when referencing ect outputs inside JS code.

  1. How would I fetch an entire object and assign it to a JavaScript variable?
    var client = "<%= @objects.client %>"; results in client being equal to "[object Object]" instead of:
    { id: 1, name: "Ross" }

  2. How would I initialize a JavaScript variable to an ect value which is an integer?
    var clientId = "<%= @objects.client.id %>"; results in clientId being either '1' or '' when it's not set, instead of 1 or null.

Removing the ""s surrounding the ect code results in the JavaScript not compiling and therefore not running properly.

Many thanks,
Ross.
