Using Tasker variables in Javascriptlet

[sam1am]

I'm trying to use global to get variables from tasker, but it's not working. Here's my task:

1. Variable Set

Name %foo to 1

2. Javascriptlet

Code

var bar = global('foo');

flash(bar);

When I run the task it says undefined. What am I doing wrong? 

[sam1am]

I changed the tasker variable to all caps and now it works.

Bingo. Var names with any cap letters are global in scope, vars in all lower case are local in scope.

What about Tasker variables with MiXeD CaSe?  

I have a scene that passes information using CamelCase vars, but I'm having trouble reading them in a Tasker JavaScriptlet...  

[Odysseos]

All variables  having at least one capital letter, wherever located, are global variables. So, %Myvar, %MyVar, %myvaR, %mYvAr etc. are all global variables. In a Javascript you must refer to them using global statement : global("MyVar").

So,

A1 Variable set [%Myvar To: Hello Do Maths:Off Append:Off]

A2 Javascriptlet [ Code:alert(global("Myvar")); Libraries:Auto Exit:On Timeout(Seconds):45]

will show an alert saying Hello.
