Question

I know that I can use callbacks like this:

function foo(mySuccess) {

    $.post('handler.ashx', mySuccess);
}

But how would I do in the following scenario:

function foo(){ }

$.post('handler.ashx', function(){

    foo.mySuccess = function(data); //this wont work, but you get the idea
});

And then call it using:

foo.mySuccess(function(data){

});

Answer 1

$.post('handler.ashx', foo.mySuccess);

This is under the assumption that the object has an accessible mySuccess function.

For example:

var foo = (function(){

    return {
       mySuccess: function(data) {
          console.log(data)
       }
    };

})()
