can not unset (delete) a variable ?

can not unset (delete) a variable ?

hello,

I have some code that gets a class and puts it in to a "var" but i want it to unset when the lightbox is closed ?

The way the code works is it puts an image class in to a var then when you click the image it opens up a lightbox with the same class. The problem is when i close the lightbox it does not unset the var so when i click the next image it opens the same lightbox window and not the correct one ? unless i refresh the page.

how can i unset the var when the lightbox is closed

this is the code:


  1. jQuery(function ($) {
       
       $('#location .basic').click(function (e) {
       
        var secondClass = $(this).attr('class').split(' ')[1];
       
        $("div." + secondClass).modal();
        $('#basic-modal-content').css('display', 'block');
        return false;
        });
       
        $('.close a').click(function(){
            $('#basic-modal-content').css('display', 'none');
            delete secondClass;
        });
       
       
    });


















delete secondClass; doesn't seem to work

thanks
rick
