Javascript function objects, this keyword points to wrong object

Question

I\'ve got a problem concerning the javascript \"this\" keyword when used within a javascript functional object. I want to be able to create an object for handling a Modal po

Answer 1

try this:

CreateItemModal.prototype.show = function() {
    var me = this;
    this.$wrapper.dialog({
        buttons: {
            // this crashes because this is not the current object here
            Cancel: me.close
        }
    });
};

The reason why it doesn't work, because the "this" is referring to the dialog, not to that class.
