This is less a prototype question that a javascript question.
The syntax
function(p) {
return p;
}
creates an anonymous (unnamed) function. Thus
var obj = {
onSuccess: function(p) {
return p;
}
}
is an object whose onSuccess field which contains that function. You
can also certainly name the function in the usual way, however.
function identity(p) {
return p;
}
var obj1 = {
onSuccess: identity
}
var obj2 = {
onSuccess: identity
}
Both obj1 and obj2's onSuccess field now points to the identity function.
Another way to avoid the repetition would be to create a wrapper for
Ajax.Request which sets the onSuccess anonymously.
