OK, working good! Now onto the next question, that last was just a
lead up.
So I am setting a timer, waiting 300/1 second for user to seize
typing. When user is completed typing, the method calls itself
passing the original input element, original event, and a 3rd
parameter, "useractive" false.
Previously, this.Find() was not defined, now that I am binding
properly it is! Now, the problem is the event value is not passing
properly. The 1st line in the Find function is:
var keycode = event.keyCode
keyCode is defined the first time in, but not defined after invoked
with the timer. The timer code looks like this:
var func = function() { this.Find(input, event, false); };
func = func.bind(this);
this.timer = setTimeout(func, 300);
The method definition for Find looks like this:
Find: function(input, event, useractive) {
Find is invoked by keypress like this:
onkeyup="_mf.Find(this, event, true);"
So any ideas what is happening to the event after the timeout is set?
do I need to pass the event in as a param of the function() statement?
Thanks!
