Question

Here is my function, this works:

 my.SetTablepagerIndex = function() {
    var blah = $("#currentPage").text();
    var test = blah.indexOf("o");
    var pagerIndex = $.trim(blah.substring(4, test));
    return pagerIndex;
}

then, i’m assigning that to a var. why doesnt this work? I just get a ‘NaN’

var index = Util.SetTablepagerIndex();

I don’t want to declare a global variable, so if what i’m doing is a bad thing what’s a better way to pass this value?

Answer 1

the actual issue is that my functions are being called out of order. setTablepagerIndex is being called before the table for the pager has been created…
