hey mates, I didn't find an answer to my week-old question so i'll rephrase to simplify and focus on just the little bit of knowledge i need from you guys:
say i want to create a function that performs some jquery methods on an element. function doThis(){ $(this).text('i've been changed'); alert("my uniq="+this.uniq); } now, inside a plugin, i want to use that function as an option value $('div.toBeSelected').myplugin({onIni:doThis}); here is my pseudo plugin: $.fn.myplugin= function(options,callback){ return this.each(function(index){ $this = $(this); uniq = 'iAmNumber_' + index; $this.options.onIni(); }); } So far, the function is called, but the alert returns "my uniq = undefined" and the text() command is not performed. Why, oh why ? -- Alexandre Plennevaux LAb[au] http://www.lab-au.com
