Question

I have a js file that I am including in my WordPress template. Is there a way to get access to the ‘$’ function inside my ‘MediaBrowser’ object without having to clumsily pass it around as an argument?

Thanks,
Steve

var MediaBrowser = {
    initialize:function($){
        $("a[rel^='mediaBrowser']").prettyPhoto();
    }   
};
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
    MediaBrowser.initialize($);
});

var MediaBrowser = {
    initialize:function(){
        var $ = jQuery; //local var or just use `jQuery` below
        $("a[rel^='mediaBrowser']").prettyPhoto();
    }   
};
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
    MediaBrowser.initialize();
});
