Using variable outside of ajax callback function?

The code you have provided is perfectly valid -- and, in fact icon does "maintain" it's value. The problem, likely, is that get() runs asynchronously -- only calling the anonymous function after 'data. Xml' has been fully loaded from the server.

So the real-world sequence of execution looks something like this.

Console. Log(icon); won't have a value at that point as you're doing asynchronous ajax. Move your entire code that handles the response in the callback function or functions it calls.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
