variable scope

[CODE]
var Nargle = function() {

var zadlezo = 6;

this.editZadlezo = function() {
zadlezo = 9;
}

this.alertZadlezo = function() {
alert(zadlezo);
}

}[/CODE]

I don’t understand. Calling editZadlezo and then alertZadlezo results in an alert of 6, not 9. The zadlezo inside editZadlezo seems to be only local and hides the zadlezo I want to edit. I have also tried using this, as below, with the result being the same.

[CODE]
var Nargle = function() {

this.zadlezo = 6;

this.editZadlezo = function() {
this.zadlezo = 9;
}

this.alertZadlezo = function() {
alert(this.zadlezo);
}

}[/CODE]

Please tell me how to access/change an object’s variable from within one of its methods.

Thanks!
