bw_jquery_af() – Simple jQuery anonymous function

Description

Simple jQuery anonymous function

When we want to invoke a function when an item is clicked on or hovered over then we need to be able to specify either an anonymous function as the $parms OR choose a jQuery routine that accepts the child selector, method and parameters as parameters This solution implements the simple anonymous function method. Note: This solution is not intended to implement complex chaining nor effects that require multiple anonymous functions. It's effective when you want to toggle/slideToggle the display when the "selector" is hovered over or clicked on <pre> $("button").click( function () { $("p").slideToggle("slow"); } ); </pre>

Usage

bw_jquery_af( $selector, $method, $af_selector, $af_method, $af_parms );

Parameters

$selector

( string ) required – the selector for the hover/click

$method

( string ) required – the method used to trigger the subsequent processing: e.g. "click" or "hover"

$af_selector

( string ) required – the selector for the anonymous function

$af_selector

( string ) required – the method for the anonymous function: e.g. "slideToggle" or "toggle"
