Overwriting event handler functions by name

[anonymous]

Sorry for my english.

My suggest is refering event handler functions to elements event by that function's names. This allow to developer overwrite handler function or delete it. Example:

$('div.button').click(function alert() { alert('I\'m clicked'); }); $('div.button').click(function alert() { alert('I\'m clicked again');

At this time, clicking on this element will showing alert window twice with message "I'm clicked" at first time and "I'm clicked again" at second.

In my case, it show only one alert window with message "I'm clicked again", because second click-event handler initializing has function with same name as first, and this function just overwrite prevoius.

Thats all.

Thank you, and waiting for your request

You're defining alert() twice so the last definition wins. You're calling alert() recursively so the stack overflows after that. Ask for programming help on StackOverflow.
