I understand how Prototype works with regards to the removal of
<script> tags after evaling the results of an Ajax request. However,
I was doing some research and am now starting to wonder why the way I
declare functions works.
According to the Prototype documentation, you need to declare the
function and assign it to a global variable:
myFunction = function() {alert('hi');}
That makes sense. However, in all of my scenarios, I've declared
functions like this:
var myFunction = function myFunction() {alert('hi');}
and the calls to myFunction work just fine. My question is...why does
my way work? According to the Prototype documentation, the local
variable myFunction should be thrown away after the eval. Any insight
anyone can provide would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
