how store a variable from the browser to check later?

simbo1905

I the following script:

var $value = _textbox("sahi_debug").value;
// do some more work
_wait(50000, _textbox("sahi_debug").value != $value);

the script does not load. If I make it

var $value = _textbox("sahi_debug").value;
// do some more work
_wait(50000, _textbox("sahi_debug").value != "yes");

then things work. The following line work to output the value:

var $value = _textbox("sahi_debug").value;
_log("value is:"+$value);

so why cannot I use $value within a condition of the wait statement?

Hi Simbo,

var $value;
_set($value, _textbox("sahi_debug").value);

// do some more work
_wait(50000, _textbox("sahi_debug").value != $value);

Please have a look at: http://sahi.co.in/w/sahi-script-and-javascript on scripting using Sahi.
