Re: grabbing variable from bottom to top

On Aug 3, 2003, "Micah Montoy" claimed that: |Anyone know of a way to use a variable that isn't defined until further down |the script at the top. I have a counter and once everything runs through |the script, the count is complete, I need to display this at the top above |the displayed results. I thought about and tried a function but I still run |into the same problem. | |thanks You could use some dHTML. At the top of the page, you would print something like <p ID="CountingID">Calculating count.</p> Then, after the computing, <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> document.all("MyID1").innerText = 'Total Count: $count.'; </SCRIPT> This code is probably very browser dependant, so YMMV.
