Jquery set defaults for all instances of a plugin
- by Chris
Given the following plugin how would you set defaults for all the instances? I would like it to work the same as $.datepicker.setDefaults().
(function ($) {
$.fn.borderSwitcher = function (options) {
defaults = {
borderColor: 'Black',
borderWidth: '1px',
borderStyle: 'solid'
};
return this.each(function () {
var settings = $.extend(defaults, options);
$(this).focus(function () {
//find a better way to set border properties
var props = settings.borderStyle + ' ' + settings.borderWidth + ' ' + settings.borderColor;
$(this).css('border', props);
});
$(this).blur(function () {
$(this).css('border', '');
});
});
};
})(jQuery);
