i have a load(callback) function which takes a callback function as parameter. Can this callback function access variables present in its parent function i.e. load()
(function load(callback)
{
return $.get("../somepage.aspx", {data:data}, function (response, status, xhr){
var x = 10;
if(typeof callback === 'function') { callback(); }
}
})(done);
var done = function(){
//do something with x here
alert(x);
}
You cannot access x like you want because it is outside the scope of the done function.
You need to pass x to the callback:
(function load(callback)
{
return $.get("../somepage.aspx", {data:data}, function (response, status, xhr){
var x = 10;
if(typeof callback === 'function') { callback(x); }
}
})(done);
var done = function(x){
//do something with x here
alert(x);
}
I suspect this is what you want but to but I am taking a stab in the dark here seeing as how the code in the question has serious syntax problems (i.e. done is not a child of parent.)
done is not a child of parent.)
