Json And Assigning Results To Javascript Variable

[dlebowski]

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated! When I use "response[0].Data" to assign a value to innterhtml, it works great. If I try to assign the value to a javascript variable (theyear = response[0].Data1;), it doesn't assign it. How do I do this? Thank you for your help!

 

Here is the value:

 

[{"Data":"3025.00","Data1":5}]

 

var theyear;

function runPost(thedate, thelotnumber, myid)
{

$jq.post("current.php?q="+moreurl,
 {
 data: thedate, data2: thelotnumber, data4: myid
 },
 function(response, status)
 {
								 document.getElementById("thecurrent").innerHTML = response[0].Data;


 theyear = response[0].Data1;

 },
 'json');

The assignment your using works as expected. Where are you trying to then use theyear ?

[dlebowski]

theyear is just a javascript variable that will be used in a function. And when the results are returned, the variable doesn't change. I don't get any errors or anything in firebug. The variable just doesn't change at all.

 

Is that what you were asking me. Thank you for helping me out.
