Invalid left-hand side expression in prefix operation

Question

I have a javascript that is supposed to create a download link to a text file when a button is clicked but I am getting an "Invalid left-hand side expression" error with it.

The js looks like this:

(function () {
  var textFile = null,
  var makeTextFile = function (text) {
    var data = new Blob([text], {type: 'text/plain'});

    // If we are replacing a previously generated file we need to
    // manually revoke the object URL to avoid memory leaks.
    if (textFile !== null) {
      window.URL.revokeObjectURL(textFile);
    }

    textFile = window.URL.createObjectURL(data);
    return textFile;
  };

  var create = document.getElementById('create');

  create.addEventListener('click', function () {
    var link = document.getElementById('downloadlink');
    link.href = makeTextFile({{request_string}});
    link.style.display = 'block';
  }, false);
})();

I've also tried doing this:

var text_string = {{request_string}}
link.href = makeTextFile(text_string);

Where {{request_string}} looks like this:

----------------Request File Generated 2015-06-30 17:23:16.324439------------------
     WINDOW_START    |      WINDOW_END     |       DURATION      |         SAT         |         TYPE        |       PRIORITY      |

And the html looks like this:

<div class="panel panel-body">
      <button id="create">Create file</button> 
      <a download="info.txt" id="downloadlink" style="display: none">Download</a>
</div>

The {{request_string}} is type str so I'm not sure what the problem is. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks!!

我最终使用document.getElementsByTagName('pre')而不是尝试传递包含字符串的变量。
