how to find the methods name within it

**helpmeinphp** · Aug 3, 2007, 07:40

Hi,

I am stuck with this.
I wanted to evaluate a function within a method.

Code:

function myfunc(){
 this.func = function(param){
  //code
  eval('this.func1');//This will not work
 }
 this.func1 = function(param){
  //code
 }
}

myvar = new myfunc();
myvar.func('aa');

My question is how should i know that the template has been set in myvar within the function myfunc()

Please help.

Code:

function myfunc(){
 this.func = function(param){
  this.func1(param);
 }
 this.func1 = function(param){
  //code
 }
}

myvar = new myfunc();
myvar.func('aa');

that was just an example.
Actually I pass it to a Ajax function which onreadystate change should call this.func1 by evaluating it.

is this a good enough example?

Code:

            function test1() {
                alert('test1 called');
            }
            function test2(val) {
                alert('test2 called with param: ' + val);
            }
            function test1_call(p) {
                p();
            }
            function test2_call(p, val) {
                p(val);
            }
            window.onload = function() {
                test1_call(test1);
                test2_call(test2, 'this is my parameter');
            };

Code:

function myfunc(){
 this.func = function(param){
  //code
  AJAX(url, 'this.func1');//The second param is a string of the name of the callback function. It will be evaluated by AJAX onreadystate.
 }
 this.func1 = function(param){
  //code
 }
}

myvar = new myfunc();
myvar.func('aa');

This is what i meant.
So i just want to know the name that 'this' will be to pass on to the AJAX Function.

Why does it have to be a string? Why can't you just send the function literal as a parameter?

Code:

            function test1() {
                alert('test1 called');
            }
            function test2(val) {
                alert('test2 called with param: ' + val);
            }
            function test1_call(p) {
                eval(p)();
            }
            function test2_call(p, val) {
                eval(p)(val);
            }
            window.onload = function() {
                test1_call('test1');
                test2_call('test2', 'this is my parameter');
            };
