title: If - Controller in JMeter is throwing jmeter.functions.JavaScript: Error processing Javascript
body: <p>I am calling a variable from bean shell, and then using the variable in if controller. My if condition is :
  <code>${__javaScript(${message_template_id} == request})}</code></p>
  
  <p>It is throwing the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>jmeter.functions.JavaScript: Error processing Javascript: [request == request}]
   org.mozilla.javascript.EvaluatorException: syntax error (&lt;cmd&gt;#1)
