javascript: toggle a button's behavior after click

Question

I have a timer. I want one but could use to Start/Pause/Resume. Here is the code

Is it something like

  toggleButton.click(function(){
    if (){
      Clock.start();
      self.click(function(){
        Clock.pause();
      });
    } else if (){
      Clock.pause();
      self.click(function(){
        Clock.resume();
      })
    } else{
      Clock.resume();
      self.click(function(){
        Clock.pause();
      })
    }
  });

It seems working, but I get error in Firebug:

TypeError: self.click is not a function

self.click(function(){

What is self ?? u want $(this) ??

And, do I code the function is js way? I fear that I'm too verbose.
