var __Calendar = Class.create({
initialize : function(options){
//i want variable name
alert(caller.name); // show->alert("calendar");
}
});
var calendar = new __Calendar();
I want to get caller''s name in "initialize" method.
How do I ?

Assigning something to a variable (even using new), is not the same as ... // Assignment. var calendar = new __Calendar(); // Calling. calendar.doSomething(); -- ----- Richard Quadling Zend Certified Engineer : http://zend.com/zce.php?c=ZEND002498&r=213474731 "Standing on the shoulders of some very clever giants!" --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

While some browsers support the arguments.callee.caller property, it is not part of the ECMAScript specification. Any information that a function needs to know should either be passed to it by the caller, included in the function declaration or set when it is initialised. -- Rob --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
