JQuery :: Accessing Methods And Properties On An Object Of A Passed Element?
Jan 25, 2010
I have an object on the document element that allows for other components to register with it, i have a custom event something along$(document).bind("register",function(thechild)..So in the child object when they are created i call$(document).trigger("register",this);And indeed i get the DOM object. However i'm looking for the plug in object, i want to be able to call methods on the passed childobject and access it's Config.Does that make sense? How can i write a plug in that is applied to various objects that also registers itself with an 'overseer' object on the document element in such a way that i can allow that overseer object to call methods on any registered child objects?

I created a method for displaying an object's properties:
As long as renderfunction = false, the object is fine coming out of this function.
However, if I change renderfunction to true, all my properties become undefined. Why isn't this working as I expect it to?

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. :(

Code JavaScript:
function dropdown() {
}; dropdown.prototype = {
sele: $('.select'),
city: [],
scope: [],
type: [],
init: function(json) {
if(json.location.length) {
for(var i=0; i<json.location.length; i++) {
this.city[i] = json.location[i].city; .....
this.scope[i] = json.location[i].scope;
}}.....
getUrl: function() {
return location.pathname+location.search;
},
setUrl: function(paramType, param) {
return this.QueryString(paramType) ? this.setQueryString(paramType, param) : this.getUrl()+"&"+paramType+"="+param;
}};

Well, I've been working with JS for three years and have a great experience here. But! I still have no really acceptable answer to the following
question:
What is the principle difference between declaring methods/properties
in the constructor function body and via prototypes.
Are there any real GURUs? Let's discuss the issue.

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 fairly familiar with the concept of Objects and their properties and methods, but javascript being object based as opposed to object oriented has me stumped on how to access an object's properties from an onclick event handler created for another object created within the original object.In the example below, I have a constructor function called anyObj. to which I pass an object reference to an element.
anyObj has 3 properties and one function increaseWidth()
increaseWidth() creates a new button with an onclick event handler and this is where I have a problem.The onclick function needs to increase the value of anyObj's this.width property. I originally had a line this.width += 10; in the onclick but quickly realised why this wasn't working because the this in the onclick function refers to the new button object and not the this.width property of anyObj.
The workaround I have used, and it works, is to make a copy of all the this.xxxxx properties. eg. width = this.width; and use the width variable in the onclick as you can see below. This "workaround" works fine but doesn't feel ideal to me.So, what I am asking advice on is, is there a better way to access the anyObj()'s properties from within the onclick function than the way I have done it? Obviously I would prefer to not have to make copies of all the anyObj() properties like I have to make them accessible to the onclick function.
Code:
function anyObj(divObj){
this.elem = divObj;
this.width = 50;
[code]....

I have 1 form, and dozens of elements. In the select elements I use onchange="somefunc()". In this function I'd like to access and change the form element attributes (such as form.element.option[].value and form.element.option[].innerHTML).
Is there a way to access the element that has just changed (unsing onchange="somefunc()") by passing a "this.element" parameter to access the elements properties such as form.element.option[].value within the function?

I am dynamically building a part of my HTML page by setting the innerHTML of a DIV element. Immediately after I do that I try to retrieve the clientHeight and clientWidth of the DIV element in order to determine what height and width the element actually ended up being. But I always get 0 as both the height and width. The contents of the DIV, i.e. the HTML code that I inserted into it via the innerHTML, does indeed get displayed on the page. But I suspect that the browser doesn't actually update the page until AFTER my JavaScript code has completed and "returns control" to the browser.
Does that make sense? Is there any way I can force the browser to update the page BEFORE my code completes its processing, so that I can properly retrieve the width and height of the element I just inserted into the page?

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

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:

how to add extra properties to html elements as I was storing data in html attributes. After looking at some others code including Raphael and this addEvent code. [URL] They seem to treat objects just like an array. obj[property] = value; This would have been extremely helpful to know previously as I have needed to be able to include variables in property names - but have resorted to making the whole thing a string and calling exec() on it.

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?

Can assign a new function to a built-in object in Firefox:
But IE and Opera don't have a MouseEvent or HTMLElement that can be set up in the same way. Can you do this in IE or Opera, or just Firefox, and maybe Webkit?

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():

I update the relevant column like this
function UpdateCol(column)

I have developped a script in order to resize the height of a div on a web page in order to display it at least up to the size of the window.
Here is the code:
It works well, but I was wondering why I am not able to get the padding-top and -bottom using these two instructions:
The script runs but Firebug shows empty strings for both values. How come? Is there a bug in Firefox?

I've run into a very perplexing problem, and it's probably mostly due to my lack of knowledge of what I'm really trying to do. I've created a C# PageMethod that accepts three parameters (string name, string xmlData, int CubeID). In my javascript, I've created a function to call the pagemethod passing in those values. However, when trying to pass in the XML I continually get odd errors like "Invalid object passed in" followed by my entire xml structure with escape sequences in it.

The following used to work with version 1.3.2
var x = $('#ElementID').val();
var x = $("'#" + "ElementID" + "'").val();
var eid = "'#" + "ElementID" + "'"; var x = $(eid).val();
Only the top one works with version 1.4.1
Similarly the following used to work with 1.3.2 but it doesn't work anymore.
var eid = "ElementID"; $("'#" + eid + " option[value='" + x + "']'").attr('selected', 'selected');

I have the following question.
In my code, Ifirstdeclare a GLOBAL property to store all my global var's in, (with already some properties)[code]...
Does the second block of code overrides the first GLOBAL object? Is there a way to push more properties to an existing object using the same pattern?

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?

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]....

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 ?
