how to increment field value each time selenium test is run?

is there any simple way to increment for example field value by +1 every time Selenium test is run through Selenium IDE?

Command: Type 
Target: some kind of id
Value: number+1

EDIT 1 :thanks for a reply krosenvold. i got your idea and this is a simplified version of what i got so far:

...     
store | 10 | x
storeEval | storedVars['x'] = ${x}+1 | 
...

variable's x value does realy get incremented, but how would you save that value between distinct test runs? is it even possible?

should i get $x value every time the test is run and at the end of it assign $x value to some dummy element on testing page, so i could retrieve that previously incremented value the next time test is run?

You can use localStorage:

execute script | localStorage.setItem('i', parseInt((localStorage.getItem('i')) || 1)+1)

execute script | return localStorage.getItem('i') | i

echo           | ${i}

store          | 0                                | iterator
echo           | ${iterator}                      |
execute script | return parseInt(${iterator}) + 1 | iterator
echo           | ${iterator}                      |

As result will be:

store | 10 | i

store | javascript{storedVars.i++;} | i

echo | ${i}

You can use eval;

eval($('elementId').value = $('elementId').value +1);

The exact syntax I'm showing implies prototype on the client;

document.getElementById('elementId').value should also do the trick in a standard DOM environment.
