    copied!<p>Im trying to convert client.sessionId to the value of my variable Response.UserID and all I get is NaN in my response. I have tried several things like toString but still get NaN or [Global object] Has anyone else tried to do this?</p> <p>Here is some sample code..</p> <pre><code>socket.on('connection', function(client){ // Success! Now listen to messages to be received client.on('message',function(event){ var Response = JSON.parse(event); if(Response.UserID == null){ client.broadcast(event); console.log('Received message from client!',event); } else{ console.log('Received message from client!',event); client.broadcast(JSON.stringify({'UserName': '', 'Message': Response.UserID + ' is now connected'})); } }); client.on('disconnect',function(){ client.broadcast(JSON.stringify({ 'UserName': '', 'Message':client.sessionId + ' left the conversation'})); }); }); </code></pre> <p>That code works fine and it will show the sessionId when a user disconnects. Here is what I want though</p> <pre><code>socket.on('connection', function(client){ // Success! Now listen to messages to be received client.on('message',function(event){ var Response = JSON.parse(event); if(Response.UserID == null){ client.broadcast(event); console.log('Received message from client!',event); } else{ console.log('Received message from client!',event); client.sessionId = Response.UserID; client.broadcast(JSON.stringify({'UserName': '', 'Message': Response.UserID + ' is now connected'})); } }); client.on('disconnect',function(){ client.broadcast(JSON.stringify({ 'UserName': '', 'Message':client.sessionId + ' left the conversation'})); }); }); </code></pre> <p>All I get back is NaN</p>
