Update Record - Increment Variable Value

This page demonstrates incrementing a variable value in an Update Record command.   The Increment By value can be set either as a "string" or math expressions.   Optional Contexts can be applied to alter the increment value before it is applied.  
Processing this Hashtag Markup: 
<# apply colors as "color"; #>

<# if "<#[color.counter]#>"=="" #>
	<# update record for "colors.<#[color.id]#>" as "color";
		set counter to 1;
	#>
<# else #>
	<# update record for "colors.<#[color.id]#>" as "color";
		increment counter by 1;
	#>
<# end if #>
Note:  Hashtag Markup is shown below <# in bold #>.   The value generated by processing the Hashtag Markup, and applying any Variable Contexts, is injected into this HTML page after the ⇒ symbol.  
<#[color.counter]#> ⇒ 556

The Hashtag Markup Language provides many methods for setting variable values, and using them later.

Variable Buckets can hold many values, processed together.   Variable Contexts enable safe injection anywhere.
