[ragsten]

Hello Everyone!

I am trying to declare a static variable in javascript (i.e) the variable should remember its value after coming out of the function.

i hav tried as below:

static i = 0;
alert(i);

static int i=0;
alert(i);

var i=0;
alert(i);

static var i=0;
alert(i);

but all the above codes or not working
can anybody tell me how?

There's nothing like static variables in javascript.
javascript is not java.

if you want to have value of a variable out of the fucntion, then simply keep a global variable.
variables can be defined by var keyword only.
