 * Hi all,
 * Wasn’t sure where to post this, and I couldn’t find any posts about it. But I
   have a javascript function which relies on the path to the images folder in my
   theme’s directory. I usually do something like this in php,
 * `<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/top_about_us_on2.jpg`
 * But because I am using javascript, I can’t just use the bloginfo(‘template_url’)
   function. Is there anyway I can still use it?
 * Thanks

 * I’m taking a wild swing here, but will substituting ‘template_directory’ work
   and still avoid any conflicts, or doesn’t it work that way?
 * template_directory = [http://example/home/wp/wp-content/themes/largo](http://example/home/wp/wp-content/themes/largo)
