i am building a function to validate a registration form for my site. one of the things i need to validate is that the email address entered into the form does not already exist in the database.
in my formValidate function i perform several tests. if a test fails i increment a errorsFound variable. at the end of my function if errorsFound is greater than 0, i do not submit the form. the test for my email field does a $.post to a checkEmail - a page that checks the database for duplicate email addresses. then my callback function looks st the results of the post - if duplicates were found, i increment my errorsFound variable. problem is that from within my $.post callback function i cannot seem to access my errorsFound variable. how can i get my post callback function to increment my errorsFound variable? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/changing-the-value-of-a-global-variable-inside-an-post-callback-function--tf4111860s15494.html#a11691585 Sent from the JQuery mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
