Question

How do I pass $(this) as a parameter in the setTimeout function (method?)?
Here’s what I’m doing so far, which is working:

var Variables = {};
Variables.ResizeTimer = false;
Variables.$obj = null;

$('.draggable').resize(function() {
    if (Variables.ResizeTimer !== false) { 
        clearTimeout(Variables.ResizeTimer);
    }
    Variables.$obj = $(this);
    Variables.ResizeTimer = setTimeout(mySizer,
        1000
    );
});

Answer 1

try this:

    Variables.$obj = $(this);
    Variables.ResizeTimer = setTimeout(
         function(){
             mySizer(Variables.$obj);
         },
         1000
    );
