    HI,

    I wanted to know how to declare a variable that is accessible across all my JS files in my project. I want to access a variable in MainPage.js from Data.js. I haven't found a solution yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is a bit urgent.

    Regards

    Rahul

    I finally found a solution myself. I am posting it here so that other people wont have to search around for it.

        WinJS.Namespace.define("Name", {
        Data: WinJS.Binding.as({            
         Content: ""
})    });

    I don't think you would be able to, that variable is either local or global but only with in it's own .js.

    If you could some how pass it to the other script then that's how you would do it, well at least that's how you would do it in Java but JavaScript was designed for a different purpose so I don't even know if it is possible.

    Hi Rahul,

    Just for your information, if you want to use js intellisense in VS IDE when
    editing the js code for your windows store app, make sure you have added the
    <script src= .... ></script> reference for all the js files (your
    own or 3rd party library) in the same html page's <head> section.
