how to update variable inside callback function

[Akki1]

HI, I have defined variable outside and i want to update the value inside callback . How can i do it.

I have tried to explain my scenario using an example.

var name='abc';

if(user!=' '){

var x = g_form.getReference('user', callFunction);

function callFunction(x){

var managerName=x.manager;

name=name+"_" + managerName;

}

}

alert(name);     // I'm not getting the updated name it still shows abc 

//The goal I want to achieve is the variable to update the value and use it outside callFunction

Hi,

This is just a sample the variable is getting values updated with  scripts which are running in the lines before this
