Resolved function not validating due to &&

durangod · 01-01-2013, 09:18 AM

Trying to get this to pass W3C validation.

The problem is the two & it does not like them and i tried
&& but then the code bombs.

PHP Code:


			


function bundleFunction(context, func, args) 

{

  context = context || null;

  if(typeof func == "string" && context)

    func = context[func];

  if(!args)

    args = [];

  else if(!(args instanceof Array))

    args = [args];

  return function() {

    return func.apply(context, args);

  }

}//close function bundleFunction

Any suggestions

thanks

Well i did get it to validate but i had to totally remove the && entirely. I tried wrapping in () as well as other attemps but encase them but no good. I have never seen that happen before.

So this is the new code, it does seem to work but hope i didnt mess it up lol

PHP Code:


			


function bundleFunction(context, func, args) 

{

  context = context || null;

  if(typeof func == "string")

  {

    if(context)

    {

    func = context[func];

    }//close if

  }//close if



  if(!args)

  {

   args = [];

     }else if(!(args instanceof Array))

       {

      args = [args];

       }



    return function() 

     {

     return func.apply(context, args);

     }



}//close function bundleFunction

I validate your original using http://validator.w3.org/check and it was fine

What DOC type are you using?

Yeah, sounds like you’re using XHTML. In that case you need to declare your JS as character data (CDATA), otherwise the parser thinks it’s still HTML.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
… your code here …
// ]]>
</script>

The best, however, is to have unobtrusive JS in a separate file which you just reference in the head using the src attribute.
