Hi there,

Sorry this article is super-duper old. Most JS frameworks now include helpers to maintain context during asynchronous calls.

jQuery has jQuery.proxy().
Dojo has dojo.hitch().

I’m sure more frameworks would now include this type of helper though.

Cheers!

Great article! Thanks! Saved me a lot of time and effort, and helped understand JS better. I think JS is a great language.

Thanks! This has been nagging me for some time and it’s hindered some of the functionality of my work, like having to wait for something to finish loading before making another Ajax call.
