How to pass arguments to addEventListener listener function?

Question

The situation is somewhat like-

var someVar = some_other_function();
someObj.addEventListener(\"click\", function(){
    some_function(someVar);
}, false);
<         


        

Answer 1

Other alternative, perhaps not as elegant as the use of bind, but it is valid for events in a loop

for (var key in catalog){
    document.getElementById(key).my_id = key
    document.getElementById(key).addEventListener('click', function(e) {
        editorContent.loadCatalogEntry(e.srcElement.my_id)
    }, false);
}

It has been tested for google chrome extensions and maybe e.srcElement must be replaced by e.source in other browsers

I found this solution using the comment posted by Imatoria but I cannot mark it as useful because I do not have enough reputation :D
