Question

need to write a function that will accept unknown object properties and pass them to another plugins function. Problem is how to retrieve given arguments, and pass them further?

example:

function(obj) {
 other_function(obj)
}

obj should accept it in form { arrows: true, size: ‘250’ … } etc. and pass it to other function in the same form.
problem is how to pass them like that? I can make default values of all parameters, but it would make no sense if it is a large group, and if someone adds new parameters to other_function 🙂

thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Using the arguments property you can pass to any function extra arguments:

function someFunction() {
    alert(arguments[0] + ' ' + arguments[1] + ' ' + arguments[2]));
}


someFunction('hello', 'foo', 'bar');
