How to Change Function Scope?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jul 08.2007

I recently became aware of the Delegate class in ActionScript, which allows one to change the scope in which a function is executed. An example would be assigning an event handler from within a class method, and needing the event handler to be aware of class properties.

I was wondering if anyone knows of something equivalent in JavaScript? I had similar trouble with a JavaScript problem a while back, and if something like ActionScript’s Delegate class exists in JavaScript I’d love to know about it!

@KorJul 08.2007 — Javascript has no classes. At least not the present on used versions. It works as a prototyped language, that means you have to build whichever "pseudo classes" you want...

At least for me, you question is too vague... can you detail a little bit? You want to create an event for an element and fire a function with it? You want to add/suspend a function when an event occurs? Or what?

Success!
