It's all about doing what makes more sense in your particular
situation : )
If your function needs more than 2-3 arguments, it's a good idea to
replace them with one object. Javascript's objects are unordered
collections, which makes them an ideal candidate for passing data in
*any* order:
someFunction({ foo: 1, bar: 2 });
// is identical in its effect to
someFunction({ bar: 2, foo: 1 });
while:
someFunction(1, 2);
someFunction(2, 1);
could easily differ.
Some of prototype.js methods follow a pattern of having an optional
`options` parameter. This parameter is meant to be an object and is
usually the last one (as it makes it easy to omit it). `Ajax.Request`
is a good example.
In your particular case, try only leaving required data as actual
arguments and put the rest into an optional object:
var Frm = Class.create({
options: {
method: 'post'
},
initialize: function(element, url, options) {
this.element = $(element);
if (!this.element) throw Error('element is required');
this.url = url;
id (!this.url) throw Error('url is required');
this.options = Object.extend(
Object.clone(this.options),
options || { }
);
// ...
}
});
