well, i need to pass some arguments to doStuff() that seem to
be out of scope when it fires.
to clarify, below is the relevant snippet of my real code
with your variant applied:
----snip
(function($) {
$.fn.Tooltip = function(settings) {
settings = $.extend($.extend({}, arguments.callee.defaults), settings
|| {});
$(this).filter('[EMAIL PROTECTED]')
.each(function() {
this.tSettings = settings;
})
.bind( settings.event, onmouseover );
return this;
};
//...
function onmouseover( event ) {
//...
//
// firebug throws "this.tSettings has no properties" on the next
line
// (when the timeout fires)
//
setTimeout(
function() {
on( $(this).attr('id'),
$(this).attr('ttbody'),
event.pageX + this.tSettings.xoffset,event.pageY +
this.tSettings.yoffset
);
}, this.tSettings.ondelay );
//...
}
function on( mysrcid, body, x, y ) {
// do stuff...
}
//...
})(jQuery);
----snap
as you may have guessed i'm tampering with the tooltip plugin
and am probably missing something obvious...
regards,
moe
