The full error is:

Error: [$parse:syntax] Syntax Error: Token ',' not a primary expression

The piece of code causing the error is:

<div ng-repeat="item in items">

    <input type="submit" ng-click="delete({{item.itemId}},$index)" value="delete">

</div>

The function actually works for previous items but breaks when I try a new item to my item array. The problem child appears to be the ma, but I do not know what to do.

• Thanks I found that the error had to do with a function on my factory. – Conqueror Commented Oct 24, 2013 at 18:53

You don't need to wrap item.itemId in {{}}. Just do:

ng-click="delete(item.itemId, $index)"

You only need to wrap in braces when using Angular's templating system - the braces tell Angular to replace the value. In this case, the value of ng-click is an expression that is evaluated (within the scope of your controller) when a click event occurs.
