bootstrap bootbox show variable in message

Question

I would like to have the message in the dialog show something like "Choose how you want to kick/ban (playername)"

my current code looks like this

$(document).on("click", ".btn-ban", function(e) {
    var username = ($(this).attr('id'));
    bootbox.dialog({
       message: "Choose how you want to ban "+$username,
       title: "Ban Player",
       backdrop:false,
       buttons: {

didn't feel like the rest of the code mattered

i've tried taken the id from the ancor tag, which is defined by php to be the player name.

but ever since i added the "+$uername" to the message, the dialog wont show.

any ideas?

Answer 1

Its username not $username like,

message: "Choose how you want to ban "+username,

Full Code

$(document).on("click", ".btn-ban", function(e) {
    var username = this.id; // you can use it simply without using attr()
    bootbox.dialog({
       message: "Choose how you want to ban "+username,
       title: "Ban Player",
       backdrop:false,
       buttons: {
