Change variable value with chart button

[Vailskier]

Hi:

I'm trying to change the value of a variable ("Contracts") by left button clicking on the text displayed on the chart, but I can't seem to get it to work with the following code. Does anyone have a suggestion?

var Contracts = 1;

function ContractSwitch1(nButtonPressed)
{

Contracts = 1;

ContractsButton1();
}

function ContractsButton1()
{
if (Contracts == 1)
{
drawTextAbsolute(14, 14, " " + 1 + "@URL=EFS:ContractSwitch1" + " ", Color.black, Color.lime, Text.RELATIVETOLEFT | Text.RELATIVETOBOTTOM | Text.LEFT | Text.FRAME | Text.ONTOP | Text.BOLD, null, 11, "CB1");

drawTextAbsolute(17, 14, " " + 2 + "@URL=EFS:ContractSwitch2" + " ", Color.black, Color.white, Text.RELATIVETOLEFT | Text.RELATIVETOBOTTOM | Text.LEFT | Text.FRAME | Text.ONTOP | Text.BOLD, null, 11, "CB2");
}
}

function ContractSwitch2(nButtonPressed)
{

Contracts = 2;

ContractsButton2();
}

function ContractsButton2()
{
if (Contracts == 2)
{
drawTextAbsolute(17, 14, " " + 2 + "@URL=EFS:ContractSwitch2" + " ", Color.black, Color.lime, Text.RELATIVETOLEFT | Text.RELATIVETOBOTTOM | Text.LEFT | Text.FRAME | Text.ONTOP | Text.BOLD, null, 11, "CB2");

drawTextAbsolute(14, 14, " " + 1 + "@URL=EFS:ContractSwitch1" + " ", Color.black, Color.white, Text.RELATIVETOLEFT | Text.RELATIVETOBOTTOM | Text.LEFT | Text.FRAME | Text.ONTOP | Text.BOLD, null, 11, "CB1");
}
}

function main()
{
ContractsButton1();

ContractsButton2();
}

In case anyone needs this functionality, I changed my code to the following and it works correctly.

var Contracts = 1;

function ContractSwitch1(nButtonPressed)
{
if(Contracts != 1)
{
Contracts = 1;
}

ContractsButton1();

}

function ContractsButton1()
{
if (Contracts == 1)
{
drawTextAbsolute(14, 14, " " + 1 + " " + "@URL=EFS:ContractSwitch1", Color.black, Color.lime, Text.RELATIVETOLEFT | Text.RELATIVETOBOTTOM | Text.LEFT | Text.FRAME | Text.ONTOP | Text.BOLD, null, 11, "CB1"+rawtime(0));

drawTextAbsolute(17, 14, " " + 2 + " " + "@URL=EFS:ContractSwitch2", Color.black, Color.white, Text.RELATIVETOLEFT | Text.RELATIVETOBOTTOM | Text.LEFT | Text.FRAME | Text.ONTOP | Text.BOLD, null, 11, "CB2"+rawtime(0));
}
}

function ContractSwitch2(nButtonPressed)
{
if(Contracts != 2)
{
Contracts = 2;
}
ContractsButton2();
}

function ContractsButton2()
{
if (Contracts == 2)
{
drawTextAbsolute(17, 14, " " + 2 + " " + "@URL=EFS:ContractSwitch2", Color.black, Color.lime, Text.RELATIVETOLEFT | Text.RELATIVETOBOTTOM | Text.LEFT | Text.FRAME | Text.ONTOP | Text.BOLD, null, 11, "CB2"+rawtime(0));

drawTextAbsolute(14, 14, " " + 1 + " " + "@URL=EFS:ContractSwitch1", Color.black, Color.white, Text.RELATIVETOLEFT | Text.RELATIVETOBOTTOM | Text.LEFT | Text.FRAME | Text.ONTOP | Text.BOLD, null, 11, "CB1"+rawtime(0));
}
}

function main()
{
ContractsButton1();

ContractsButton2();
}
