Question

I want after each times click value 2011 an increasing number, how is it?

Example:

$('button').click(function() {
    var num = '2011';
    var out = num ++1;
    alert(num); // i want this output: 2012
});

Answer 1

var num = 2011;
$('button').click(function() {
    num++;
    alert(num); // i want this output: 2012
});

Answer 2

var num = '2011';
$('button').click(function() {
    num++;
    alert(num); // i want this output: 2012
});

Answer 3

Try this:

var num = '2011';
$('button').click(function() {
    var out = num++;
    alert(num);
});

• var num must be outside of the function, otherwise it will be 2011 again every time the function is run.
• num++1 should be num++ .
