Hi, I just tried this code on coffeescript.org a = (msg) -> alert msg
a("booo") and it worked fine. When I put the first part of it (defining a) in a .js.coffee file and call a("booo"); in my view it simply doesn't work. This is the error firebug throws out: a is not defined [Break On This Error] a("boom thata"); ----------------------- This is what the compiled js file looks like: (function() { var a; a = function(msg) { return alert(msg); }; }).call(this); What went wrong? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
