I was implementing a on-demand script controller based on jquery's getscript, it looks like this:
function controller = function(){
var script = function(){
var scripts = {};
return {
load: function(jsurl){
$.getScript(jsurl, null);
},
run: function(js){
window[js].apply(this,null);
}
}
};
return {
script: script()
};
}
var ctlr = controller();
then here is a remote script with a function to be loaded - remote.js
function remotefunc(){
alert( 'remotefunc invoked' );
}
and here is how the whole thing supposed to work, in the main script:
ctlr.script.load( 'remote.js' ); // remote script successfully loaded
ctlr.script.run( 'remotefunc' ); // got an error, window['remotefunc'] undefined
but as you can see, 'remotefunc' is defined in the global 'window' scope, so the window object is supposed to be able to 'see' it.
I thought the problem was probably the closure stuff in the 'controller' definition, so I did a direct $.getScirpt without using the 'controller':
$.getScript( 'http://path/to/remote.js', function(){
window['remotefunc'].apply( this, null ); // this worked
} );
strange. So it is about the 'controller' implementation(I kind need it)! Anybody can help me out with this? How to fix the 'controller' implementation so the
window[js].apply(this,null);
can actually work?
Thanx.
