JavaScript Global Variable
JavaScript Global Variable
A JavaScript global variable is declared outside the function or declared with window object. It can be accessed from any function.
Let’s see the simple example of global variable in JavaScript.
Declaring JavaScript global variable within function
To declare JavaScript global variables inside function, you need to use window object. For example:
window.value=90;
Now it can be declared inside any function and can be accessed from any function. For example:
function m(){
window.value=100;//declaring global variable by window object
}
function n(){
alert(window.value);//accessing global variable from other function
}
Internals of global variable in JavaScript
When you declare a variable outside the function, it is added in the window object internally. You can access it through window object also. For example:
var value=50;
function a(){
alert(window.value);//accessing global variable
}
