JavaScript Problems with X10 Multi-variant Site
Just started testing multiple variants with dynamic content in X10.
First problem, which should be easy to duplicate, is that all Javascript added to the page <head> appears multiple times, which shouldn't break the page but equally shouldn't happen.
Second is that the dynamic content, which should fill a placeholder using an AJAX call, works at desktop size but doesn't happen at mobile/tablet size. No errors are raised and the AJAX call is made corectly but then nothing.

It appears to occur once for each Variant.
If you add content to the Site head, you only get one instance.
The repeated code could be a problem for JavaScript variable instantiations.
It is not a good place to be.
Re the AJAX, it is possible the Placeholder needs to be renamed for each Variant? It could be populating the wrong Variant.
I would create different Names as the target for each one separately.

Thank you, looks like you are right about the wrong placeholder, giving them different ids has got the small variant working. As the large variant is now broken I suspect all the dynamic content will have to be served with ids suited to the variation displayed.
