How can I access variables outside of current scope in javascript?
- by sekmet64
I'm writing some application in javascript and cannot figure it out how to access the variables declared in my function, inside this jquery parse. Inside I can access global variables, but I don't really want to create global vars for these values.
Basically I want to extract file names from an xml document in the simulationFiles variable. I check if the node attribute is equal with the simName and extract the two strings inside the xml elements, that part I think it's working.
How can I extract those xml elements and append them to local variables?
function CsvReader(simName) {
this.initFileName = "somepath";
this.eventsFileName = "somepath";
$(simulationFiles).find('simulation').each(function() {
if ($(this).attr("name") == simName) {
initFileName += $(this).find("init").text();
eventsFileName += $(this).find("events").text();
}
});
}
