Problem with javascript classes

[JOSEMAOCU]

Hi to all,

Im making this small class:

function ReportItem()//sera un <table> con celdas
{
this.HTML="";
}
//data has an 2d array with headers and data to render a table
ReportItem.prototype.Test=function(data)
{
this.HTML="<div onclick=DoAny()>"+this.HTML"</div>";
document.write(this.HTML);
}
ReportItem.prototype.DoAny()=function()
{
alert(this.HTML);
}

//initialize the class

var ri= new ReportItem();
ri.Test('<table><tr><td>asdjasd</td></tr></table>');


My question is:

I can create an instance of the class, and execute the Test method without problems, but, when i click in the layer that the class generate i cant execute the DoAny method?

Could you give me a hand?
Thanks a lot.
Regards.
Josema.

You need to use "ri.DoAny()", not just "DoAny()".

Hope this helps,
Dan

Unless you want to make the function doAny() static, then you will need to extend your main object to include a reference to it's name (so that it knows what it is called when you document.write the markup).

Here is (untested) what I mean (my changes in red - and some simple error checking in blue):

function ReportItem()
{
   [COLOR=red]this.name="";[/color]
   this.HTML="";
}

ReportItem.prototype.Test=function(data)
{
    [COLOR=blue]if (this.name)[/color] this.HTML="<div onclick=[COLOR=red]"+this.name+".[/color]DoAny()>"+this.HTML"</div>";
    document.write(this.HTML);
}

//initialize the class
var ri= new ReportItem();
[COLOR=red]ri.name='ri';[/color]

Let us know how you go.

Cheers,
Jeff
