<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var myGlobalVar = someValue;
</script>
</head>

Basically, any variable declared outside of a function is in the global scope. To declare a global from inside a function you must set it as a property of the window object (all global-scope variables are already window properties)

function someFunction()
{
window.myGlobalVar = someValue;
}
