You need to keep a reference to the function that you set on the
observer. What's important to realise here is that in javascript you
have instances of functions, in exactly the same way as you might have
an instance of a class in OOP. So you have something like:
function foo()
{...}
var fooInst = foo;
element#observe('event', fooInst);
element#stopObserving('event', fooInst);
as long as the fooInst variable is global, ie, referencable by any
javascript anywhere, it doesn't matter where you stop observing it
from.
Saying that a reference has to be global is a little confusing.
Reference is a reference. As long as it points to the same function
that was used in `Event.observe`, everything should work. It doesn't
really matter how you store that reference and where you store it : )
Also, I believe in the latest version of prototype that:
element#stopObserving()
with no parameters, stops all observers on that element.
Yep.
