thanks guys for you answer but I know how to use $.each in OO context... I would like to understand why jQuery works in this way..
What are the advantage using this inside closure instead of using a temp arguments like the index? I see only disadvantage... I also created a plugin (http://code.google.com/p/jquerycallback/) to manage callback using OO but this remain one of the (few) aspects of jQuery I don't like and I would like to get a reason :) Also... Thinking about OOP... are you really sure that jQuery isn't a OO library (or framework as you prefer)? Two considerations about this relationship between jQuery and OOP: - jQuery selectors are a "strange" way to construct an object, an alternative constructor starting from a dollar sign and not with "new" keyword ( var divs = $("div") should be written as var divs = new jQuery("div") ) - jQuery function (events, attributes, traversing, ecc...) are a lot of methods of jQuery object... they aren't simple namespaced function in a functional paradigm. (alternative) constructor + a lot of methods = object oriented programming why not?
