getting variable out of function...

[Maurice]

Hi all,first of all thanks for all help received so far, it really helped me out of some nasty things. Now I have one more question, which I can't find the answer of.In my actionscript, I have a variable (number) created inside a function. Then I have another function, where I need that variable again. I thought this was no problem, but it seems that ActionScript can't read out variables created inside one function into another. Again, this variable is a number.1) Is there a 'special' trick how I can read the variable from one function into another? Then one small question related to this, does a function inside a function is allowed? So like:

button_btn.onPress = function() { ***   button2_btn.onPress = function() {	  ***	}}

Just for myself to know, how is this done?Is it as simple as me just declaring the variable outside of the function?
