Make sure you're building the builder object inside your initilize
function so that "this" is set properly. Also you need to actually run
the function once you get it. So add () to the end after ].

I don't know if this is possible as I can't get it to work, so I
thought I'd ask here. My class has various methods that do the same
basic functionality in different flavors. I can't just use arguments
since each method is fundamentally different and needs its own code.
So let's say I have methods:
createWithOl: function() {},
createWithDiv: function() {},
createWithTable: function() {}
I have an option called "type" that is set to either "ol", "li", or
"table" depending on what the user wants. What I'm trying to do is
make a variable that looks like this...
builder: {
ol: this.createWithOl,
div: this.createWithDiv,
table: this.createWithTable
}
...so that I can then use something like this to build the correct
element (instead of using a switch statement):
toElement: function() {
this.element = this.builder[this.options.type];
}
I've done the code but it hasn't worked so far. I'm guessing is a
scope related issue but I can't seem to figure out what I need to pass
to the functions. Any tips?
