Making a short alias for document.querySelectorAll

Question

I\'m going to be running document.querySelectorAll() a whole lot, and would like a shorthand alias for it.

var queryAll = document.querySelectorAll

queryAll         


        

Answer 1

This would work, you need to invoke the alias using call() or apply() with the appropriate context.

func.call(context, arg1, arg2, ...) 
func.apply(context, [args]) 

var x = document.querySelectorAll;
x.call(document, 'body');
x.apply(document, ['body']);
