Init Variable

After declaring a variable, you may want to initialize it with the Init Variable action. Trigger the action with a browser-triggered event set to onParse in the head section of the page. Choose Action > Variables > Init Variable. Choose the variable you want to initialize from the Variable menu. (You must declare your variable beforehand for it to appear in the pop-up menu.)
