OK
Someone might want to jump in here, as I'm not 100% of the behavior of the
passed in event obj.
Basically I think you can just do the following:
var func = function() { this.Find(input, objEvent, false); }.bind(this);
> //get rid of the func = func.bind(this) line and just bind inline
since the variables input and objEvent are closed over that should be all
you need to do. The caveat to that is if the objEvent reference changes with
other events that happen after you set up the timer, and that's where
someone like kangax can probably jump in and say yea or nay immediately (of
course you can just try it).
If that doesn't work, then you might want to create the timer in such a way
that it passes just the keycode part of the event object (which is all you
seem to need). I can see that looking kind of like this:
Find: function(input, objEvent, useractive) {
> var keycode = objEvent.keyCode;
> this.__doFind(input, keycode, useractive);
> },
> __doFind: function(input, keycode, useractive) {
> this.flgUserActive = useractive;
>
> // keycode ignore list
> if (this.aKeyCodeIgnoreList.include(keycode))
> return false;
>
> // ajax spinning (no action)
> if (this.flgAjaxActive)
> return;

> if (this.flgUserActive) {
> this.flgUserActive = false;

Ultimately, though, you should be attaching your listeners via javacript,
which in this case will probably make life a little easier.
