However, I want my <a> to define the value of test because intially I need it to be equal to nothing and the <a> will define the value. But, this doesn't work because if I do this like you suggested after I close the link </a> the value of test will go right back to nothing. So, I don't know if this is possible what I am trying to do. I need conditional statements basically. So, if test <div tal:condition=test> is true it needs to perform an operation. But to perform the operation it has to be triggered by the link.

if I have this:
<a href="" tal:define="test python:here.select(1)"> PCName </a>
how can I use the variable 'test' after </a>?
If it is not possible, is there another way of doing this based on a link that will give me the same functionality?
