Hi again RA,
So, here's maybe the missing link between your question and my
previous reply...
1) For a "proper" hijack you always start with storing the original
function...
if (Story.prototype.someCoreFunction_myBackupOf==undefined)
Story.prototype.someCoreFunction_myBackupOf
=Story.prototype.someCoreFunction;
2) Overwriting the original, your function is then declared based on
the previous functions premises, possibly customized to what you
actually need...
Story.prototype.someCoreFunction = function(my,args) {
//...
3) However, somewhere in the code of your replacemet - preferably at
the very end - you are to call the original function, otherwise you're
not quite hijacking, but rather merely overwriting the original...
this.someCoreFunction_myBackupOf.apply(this,arguments);
Note the __apply(this,arguments)__ part, shoving over all of what you
possibly ignored. There you go, another how-to-properly hijack in 5
Minutes plus some more...
As for me, this - and what I mentioned before, and also object
literals, array shorthands, functions as firstclass objects, etc... -
is the kind of stuff where javascript slowly but profoundly starts
making you feel that it's not just some cheap-ass browser scripting
engine, but rather in the realm of the more powerful tools for
expressing yourself in code around today ...lean and mean ;-)
Tobias.
