instance. The first click handler will fail. The keyword this will not be a reference to the instance of Foo as expected, but a reference to the matched DOM element that was clicked. jQuery.proxy() will wrap your function such that further invocations will use the context you set for this function Foo() {} Foo.prototype.baz = function() {}; Foo.prototype.bar = function() { this.baz(); }; var instance = new Foo(); $('element').click(instance.bar); $('element').click( jQuery.proxy( instance.bar, instance ); ); Proxy Thursday, July 5, 12
