Increment the name of variable

Question

Basically I want to increment the name of the variable. What is the correct syntax to do this?

for (i=0; i<5; i++) {
    eval(\"var slider_\" + i);

             


        

Answer 1

The right way to do so is to use an object or array. This should work:

var slider = {}; // object
// var slider = [] ; // array
for (i=0; i<5; i++) {
    slider[i] = function() {
        // some code ...
    }
    dojo.addOnLoad(slider[i]);
}
