Javascript structure

[astralaaron]

I was wondering how to write a structure like jquery does for example so that you can select an element like: somescript('some_element').someMethod();

 

etc...how do you chain together basically??? thank you

 

the first function would just return the element..then whatever function you did after would run on that element

The function returns the same object that it is a method of.

To be more clear. The first function $() returns an object, and methods of that object return the exact same object.

 

Here's a simplified example:

function a(x) {  return {    value : x,    b : function() { return this; }    c : function() { return this; }  }}a("A").b().b();

Ignolme I really appreciate you responding. I'm sorry for such a late response, when I returned home from work, my computer monitor wouldn't turn on. Your example makes sense, I will play around with it soon and let you know how it went!
