The mgiIncrement Tag
Tag Behavior
Use the mgiIncrement tag to increment or decrement a numeric
variable by a specified value.
Tag Syntax
The mgiIncrement tag has one required parameter and two optional
parameters. The tag form is:
<mgiIncrement variableName="Name" scope="Scope"
value="Number">
Required Parameters:
- variableName - The variableName is the name of the
variable to increment. If the variable has already been created,
it must be blank or contain a number. If the variable has not
been created, the mgiIncrement tag will create a new variable
with the variableName and set the specified value.
Optional Parameters:
- scope - The scope is the scope of the variable to
increment. If the scope parameter is set to "page",
then a page variable with the specified name will be incremented
by the specified value. If the scope is set to "site",
then a site variable with the specified name will be incremented
by the specified value. The default scope is "page".
- value - The value is amount to increment the variable.
Use a negative number to decrement the value.
Example Usage and Output
<mgiIncrement variableName="Count" scope="Page" value="1">
In this example, a page variable is incremented by one. If
the current value of the "Count" variable is "33",
the mgiIncrement tag will set the value to "34" when
it is processed.
