Question

I have some javascript like this:

<script> 

var num = 0;

 if(num==0){
    function lol(){
        alert("lol");
    }
 } else {
    function lol(){
        alert("haha");
    }
 }

</script>

Then, later in the page I have:

<script>lol();</script>

How do I ensure that the first function isn’t always overwritten by the second in the else statement?

Thanks

How about:

if(num == 0) {
    lol = function() {
        alert("lol");
    };
}
else {
    lol = function() {
         alert("haha");
    };
}
