Hi, This is one of my more 'complicated' methods that just seem like using .bind(this) at the end of the inner functions would make the code read more confusing.. I believe I have some other methods somewhere that actually pass functions as params inside those beforeCreate, afterFinish blocks, and they too would require .bind -- and at the point it just gets really ugly...
autoUpdate: function(was_in_progress) { var frequency = $F('page_updater_frequency'); var admin_table = this; if (!this.periodical_executer.updater) { admin_table.periodical_executer.updater = new PeriodicalExecuter(function() { if (!admin_table.periodical_executer.request_in_progress) { admin_table.params = {'authenticity_token': Utilities.getAuthToken(), 'was_in_progress': was_in_progress}; new Ajax.Request(_location(), { method: 'get', parameters: admin_table.getParams(), onCreate: function() { admin_table.periodical_executer.request_in_progress = true; }, onComplete: function(r) { admin_table.periodical_executer.request_in_progress = false; var json = Utilities.updateElements(r); if (json.js_data && json.js_data.should_stop) { admin_table.periodical_executer.updater.stop(); var effected = admin_table.periodical_executer.glowing; if (effected) { // stop glowing effect effected.stopGlow(); } admin_table.periodical_executer = {}; } else { // typewriter effect for updated info var for_typewriter = json.partials.select(function(e) { return admin_table.type_writer_ids.include(e.id); }); for_typewriter.each(function(e) { _typeWriter(e.id); }) } } }); } }, frequency); } else { alert('There is a request currently in progress. Please try again later or refresh the page.'); return false; } } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.
