How do I declare multiple vars in JavaScript's "for" statement?

for(var i = 0, var p = ''; i < 5; i++)
{
    p +开发者_StackOverflow社区= i;
}

Based on a JavaScript book i'm reading, this is valid code. When I test it doesn't work, and in FireBug I get this error:

SyntaxError: missing variable name

---

var i = 0, var p = '';

should be

var i = 0, p = '';

the var keyword applies to the whole line.

It looks like a typo.

You need to remove the second var and it will work perfectly:

for(var i = 0, p = ''; i < 5; i++)
{
    p += i;
}

---

var p = 0;
var i = 0;


for(i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
    p += i;
}

or

for(var i = 0, p = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
    p += i;
}

---

remove the var from before p = ''.

Don't repeat the var, you only need it once in the declaration:

for (var i = 0, p = ''; i < 5; i++)
{
    p += i;
}

you can't declare a variable in the second position termitation expression is the following works

var p;
for(var i = 0, p = ''; i < 5; i++)
{
    p += i;
}
