jQuery getObject plugin v1.1

By "Cowboy" Ben Alman on December 24, 2009 10:10 AM |

jQuery getObject allows you to get and set properties of an object via dot-delimited name string. Inspired by the Dojo methods of the same names.

This plugin is useful if you have deep namespaces or data structures and don’t want to do excessive testing like: if ( a && a.b && a.b.c ) { ... } every time you need to get or set a property or invoke a method.

If that’s you, check it out now, and enjoy!

If that’s not you, check out something more interesting, like jQuery doTimeout or jQuery BBQ.

Any of these HTML tags may be used for style: a, b, i, br, p, strong, em, pre, code.
Multi-line JavaScript code should be wrapped in <pre class="brush:js"></pre>
(supported syntax highlighting brushes: js, css, php, plain, bash, ruby, html, xml)
Use < instead of < and > instead of > in the examples themselves.

This website makes heavy use of PHP, JavaScript, XML and XSLT, and relies greatly on the services and tools provided by Movable Type Open Source, JQuery, Yahoo Pipes, FeedBurner and Flickr. Syntax highlighting is handled by SyntaxHighlighter and the icons are Fam Fam Fam Silk.
