jQuery: execute function upon keydown - El Forum - 01-17-2008 [eluser]codex[/eluser] I'm trying to execute a function upon keydown but I can't get it to work. saveChangesTitle() is a self defined function, but when I try to do it as below I get an error saying saveChangesTitle() is not a function. How do you do this the proper way? Code: jQuery('.eip-text').keydown(function(e){ jQuery: execute function upon keydown - El Forum - 01-17-2008 [eluser]Nick Husher[/eluser] I'm not familiar with jQuery, but is the type of argument e to your anonymous function a Javascript event? If that's the case, then saveChangesTitle isn't a function defined by Event, and you should probably find a less messy way of including it in your event handler. Here's how I'd do it: Code: (function() { Note, if you really want to define saveChangesTitle on your event object, you'd do it by executing the following code: Code: Event.prototype.saveChangesTitle = function(el, revert, i, title_id); jQuery: execute function upon keydown - El Forum - 01-17-2008 [eluser]codex[/eluser] Cool, that will work. Thanks! |
