Hi again Doug,
But, my question is, is there a way I can do some type of alert() and
have it print out what scope it is executing in?
I don't know of a reliable way to do that, no.
But if you're using Firefox, it looks like the latest Firebug[1] now
displays the scope chain on the watch

Hi Doug,
I don't really understand, for example why, if there is a variable
window.myvar, some Javascript code would not be able to access it...
As far as I know, all code within the same document can access that
property; it is global to the document because it's a property of the
window
Thanks for the advice every one.
T. J. Crowder,
I wonder if a div with style overflow:auto and a scrollbar on the side
could act similar to a frame.
I figured what makes things go wrong, but still not sure why. I bring
up a lightbox similar to the one here:

It shouldn't, no.
But, when I do an Ajax.Update of the lightbox div, and I have an
onclick on a button in that lightbox. The code attached to that
button can longer access the global
Hi doug,
Yes, give us a live demo, if possible.
But what I read let me think that you would access to a variable in
the main window from javascript coded inside a frame.
This is possible but under certain restrictions for security reasons.
Is that what you trying to do??

On 11 fév,
Basically every set of curly braces {} gives you new scope. It does
(give you) with functions and objects, but i am not sure if it does
for for, while etc. The this is different for every level of
scope but not every scope (since it points to the current object).
Examine this code
window.ppp =
Basically every set of curly braces {} gives you new scope.
This is one of the most confusing aspects of javascript. The above is
not true. There are only two scopes in javascript, global and function
() {}
var a = 'hi';
for (var b = 0; b 10; b++) {
alert(a); // alerts 'hi'
}
