Question

I want to use the history.js plugin from jQuery. The code is:

// Global
var History = window.History;
$(document).ready(function() {
  History.Adapter.bind(window, 'statechange', function(){
    console.log('Yeeeeeeaah!');
  });
  window.History.pushState(null, null, '#42');  // Yeeeeeeaah!
});
function anotherFunc() {
  window.History.pushState(null, null, '#test');  // Nothing happens
}

What’s wrong with the scope?

Answer 1

You did not execute anotherFunc.

Nothing is wrong with the scope, but you could’ve omitted the var History = window.History and just used History.
