Standard AJAX query with jQuery:
var globalTitle = "";
var pages = ["a", "b", "c"];
for (var i = 0; i < pages.length; i++) {
createpage(pages[i]);
}
function createpage(title) {
globalTitle=title;
console.log (globalTitle); //All looks good here
$.ajax({
url: "createpage.php?id=" + title,
context: document.body,
success: success
});
}
The success() function uses globaltitle which is why I had to declare it global.
In the success() function though console.log (globalTitle); constantly gives me "a". It's like the variable is assigned but is then cached every time success() is called.
Happens in FF 4 and Chrome 8. Any thoughts?
