Getting A Method's Name
Jul 23, 2005
Here's my situation. I have an object:
function Obj () {
this.foo = null;
}
a function
function bar() {...}
another function
function doSomething () {
var obj = new Obj();
obj.foo = bar;
doSomethingElse(obj);
}
In function doSomethingElse I want to create the following line of DHTML
<div return true;">
What I want is for onClick to be defined to be the execution of the foo
method of obj.
I tried document.writeln ("<div + obj.foo + "(); return
true;'>");
What I get is the source code for bar stuck into the middle of the string.
So how do I get just the name of the function bar in the string? Or
ultimately, how do I get the handler to be bar in the DHTML?

Can Java classes/objects be used from within the javascript code on the
HTML page? I.e., can I call a Java method from the javascript function?

I have a javascript function that needs to access methods of a java
object(localTag). In my JSP I'm trying to include hidden fields for
the Strings returned from the getter method calls of the object like
so:
<html:hidden name="FrmCustomerHolding" property='<%=
"localTag.getTagName()" %>' />
<html:hidden name="FrmCustomerHolding" property='<%=
"localTag.getTagValue()" %>' />
If I can do something like this, what is the correct syntax and how do
I access this property in my javascript? When I have a hidden field
that is just a String, I access it in the javascript like
"document.getElementById("theString").value" and it works fine, but I
can't seem to find how to access the String value of a method call.

I am wondering if it is possible to get the response from a method
within a given page, and that function alone? Traditionally, I have
been getting the response from the Page_Load method of the targeted
page, but now I want the response from a particular method on the
target page:
Public Sub SomeCallback(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
'RETURN XML FOR CALLBACK
End Sub

When you use addEventListener (or addEvent in IE) to call an object
method, does it call it with the correct this parameter?
The ECMAScript reference has a lot to say about the caller using
Function.prototype.call or Function.prototype.apply and passing the
correct this pointer for the context, but how does addEventListener
determine the correct this pointer. Or does it just punt and pass the
global context, thus making it impossible to refer to the object this
in an object method used as an event listener?

About when to use setter methods. For example, I have this code
Should this be used like this:
I think a better question is when to use the .each loop? Since, the first line of code I have works fine.

So I have this homework assignment where I need to get my application from switches to using methods to give me the same result. I usually am good in this class, but right now I am completely lost. Here is a piece of the code using switches:
/* Get Type of Math problem from the user */
input = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Enter the type of Math Problem"
+ "you would like to solve:
"
+ "Addition = 1
"
+ "Subtraction = 2
"
+ "Multiplication = 3
"
+ "Division = 4
"
+ "Enter the number of your choice: "); .....
I need to get this same result by using methods. I can use these method signatures:
public static int readProblemType(){}
public static int getAddProblem(int randomValue1 int randomValue2){}
public static int getSubProblem(int randomValue1 int randomValue2){}
public static int getMultProblem(int randomValue1 int randomValue2){}
public static int getDivProblem(int randomValue1 int randomValue2){}
public static int readAnswer(){}
Looking at what I need to do, how would I use public static int readProblemType(){} method to read the problem type? Or where should I start?

Programming assignment: Write a program for analyzing El Paso weather. This program must allow the user to enter dates followed by temperatures at these dates. Assume that we are only tracing one year, so the overall number of such dates does not exceed 366. Your must then output the following information:
*the average temperature;
*the list of all the days when the temperature was below freezing (i.e., below 32);
*the hottest temperature, and the list of all the days when the temperature was the hottest.
Main difference: In the previous assignment, following our advise, you stored the dates in one array (array of strings), and temperatures in another array (array of numbers).
For this new assignment, define a class Record whose objects contain two fields:
*a field date that contains the date, and
*a field temperature that contains the temperature.
Instead of using two arrays, use a single array of records (i.e., of objects of type Record).
The problem I'm having, is that I do not know how to read from two files and store the information into one array. (For example: with this assignemnt, I need to have one array with 366 fields, and in each field there needs to be a date and temperature.)

I have more of a programme design related question here: I have an object with 2 methods, those two methods are supposed to be called repeatedly one after the other (e.g. by setInterval())
window.setInterval(function() {
obj.method1();
obj.method2();
}, 100);
the problem with this code is that the execution time of those methods may increase depending on the processed data (an array with several hundred elements or more) so it may be, that the execution time of both methods exceeds the given repetition time. I could solve that by placing a call to the next function in each method, but I wonder if that is good design or not (tight coupling)
code for method2() is analogue
Obj.prototype.method1 = function ()
{
/* working code here */
[Code]....

How are methods masquerading as properties? Does this make methods more flexible as objects or plain functions?

I pulled out an old javascript object I created a while back a few days ago and I've been developing in Firefox ever since. Then I decided to test how it worked in other browsers and.....it works in none of them! Not chrome, not IE(7/8), not opera, and not safari.
It's built like this:
Code:
function myCalendar() {
//constructor function
}
myDiv.prototype.newMethod = function() {
[Code].....
It's really as simple as that....what's on the go? Do any JS experts out there know anything about this?

When a custom object is created in javascript, then methods need to be defined for this object. Still every object has toString() method available to them, even if it is not defined. How is this method available to all the objects ? Is it inherited from some root object ?
Is sort() method available to all the objects ? What are the other methiods available to all objects ? Where can I get list of available methods ?

I am a little confused how the memory for objects is allocated in
JavaScript. David Flanagan, in "javascript: The Definitive Guide,"
states that each property of a class takes up memory space when
instantiated. So space is created for aMethod three times in this
example: Code:

I just wanted to know if there was any way to use script to display a
list of methods linked to a particular object? The object I have in
mind is getBrowser(), and I can't seem to find any documentation online
with regards to it's methods.
Also, as I am learning, it would be nice to be able to know what
methods are available for a particular object/function, without
necessarily having to spend a while looking up an object's method when
it's documented in a lot of different places, but only vaguely.

I have been trying to discover why the first() and last() methods are not working in my jQuery 1.2 nor 1.3 tests. After searching for a while, I found the alternative way with filter() and eq(), but I still wonder why none of those methods work.
The API documentation [URL]... states that they are available since 1.2, but they won't work, I always get a "not a function" error. I also found a tracker entry [URL].. discussing the need for them, but nothing is clear from it.

Let's say I have a Javascript object that looks like this:

events: {
"comments:added": this.add,
"comments:removed": this.remove,
"comments:fetched": this.addAll
}
}
I'd like to add this method to it, either manually, using $.extends() or _.extends():

HTML5 brings two new methods to the js selector API: querySelector() and querySelectorAll(). These methods can be used to match elements against a group of selectors. I think, a lot of the functionality overlaps with jQuery selectors. My guess is that these new methods will be a few times faster than jQuery selectors because they are natively implemented. My question is, how will jQuery use these additions to the js selector API? Will jQuery selectors just encapsulate these new methods? If so, is this work in progress or..

Do many programmers remember most of the object properties and methods or do they use IDE or references to find those specific objects. I'm starting to learn Javascript and seeing all the different type of objects available can be depressing. :(

I have been making slow progress on my goal of creating a Firefox extension. My plans are to control the modifications this extension affords by using mouse wheel movement plus the Alt key. So it is vital for me to understand the Firefox mouse wheel event and how to cancel the default action and replace it with my own. Searching the web to find out how to achieve this the best source thus far has little explanation but code that achieves much of what I want. The code is posted below and I have more than one question as to how it works.
In this code the word "wheelDelta" seems to appear out of nowhere used as if it is a property. So I put it to you Can an event like DOMMouseScroll have properties and methods? If it can, can you either referrer me to a reference as to what they are or tell me what they are? I will need to pick the Firefox only code out from the below code so that would certainly help.
I am also not understanding the line "if (delta)" since delta is declared as a variable in the function we're the if delta condition is queried. It seems to me how could you have delta returning anything else but the zero it is initiated to, so why is this "if (delta)" necessary. Well this delta variable also seems to be changing to create the change in the text in the div tag with the delta ID so this is confusing me to. Code:

I have a class constructor, and after the constructor a prototype method associated with that class. I'm trying to call that method from within the class constructor, but it causes an error, indicating that the method is not a property of the class.Is it not possible to access prototype methods from within the constructor? If it IS possible, how do I do it?
