I am looking for a most efficient way to re-use widgets with different selectors... For example if I have:
$("#selector1").datepicker({
beforeShow: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
},
onClose: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
},
onSelect: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
}
})
And later I am looking to assign this same widget with same functions inside to other selectors which are not known at load time. Since its not about choosing a better selector and I want to avoid:
$("#new-selector2").datepicker({
beforeShow: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
},
onClose: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
},
onSelect: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
}
})
$("#new-selector3").datepicker({
beforeShow: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
},
onClose: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
},
onSelect: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
}
})
What would be the best way of doing something like:
var reusableDatepicker = datepicker({
beforeShow: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
},
onClose: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
},
onSelect: function(var1,var2) {
// do stuff
}
})
$("#selector1").attach(reusableDatepicker);
$("#new-selector2").attach(reusableDatepicker);
$("#new-selector3").attach(reusableDatepicker);
I know it has to be obvious to all jQuery devs out there, so obvious I cannot find it in docs :) Thank you!
