JavaScript scope issue causes only one binding

Question

I use the Raphael.js library for a specific job. I create circles and snap a hover object that shows / hides the text. The problem is that only the text above the last circle is shown / hidden, even I am hanging over other circles.

Here is my code:

for(var i=0; i<feedData.length; i++){               
                var x = ((i+1)*diff);
                var t = r.text(x, 120, feedData[i].title).hide();

                var c = r.circle(x,150,10);
                c.attr({fill: "red"});
                c.attr({stroke: "red"});
                c.attr({title: feedData[i].title});             
                c.hover(function (event) {
                    this.animate({r: 13}, 200);
                    t.show();
                }, function (event) {
                    this.animate({r: 10}, 200);
                    t.hide();
                });             
            }

Answer 1

Well, I don't know anything about the raphael library, but it would seem that you could wrap yours c.hoverin a self-start function to create a closure that references the correct value t.

(function( local_t ) {
    c.hover(function (event) {
        this.animate({r: 13}, 200);
        local_t.show();
    }, function (event) {
        this.animate({r: 10}, 200);
        local_t.hide();
    });
})( t );

, hover, t t_local ( , ), ( ) .

, :

for(var i=0; i<feedData.length; i++){               
    var x = ((i+1)*diff);
    var t = r.text(x, 120, feedData[i].title).hide();

    var c = r.circle(x,150,10);
    c.attr({fill: "red"});
    c.attr({stroke: "red"});
    c.attr({title: feedData[i].title});             
    (function( local_t ) {
        c.hover(function (event) {
            this.animate({r: 13}, 200);
            local_t.show();
        }, function (event) {
            this.animate({r: 10}, 200);
            local_t.hide();
        });
    })( t );         
}

EDIT: for(), , Chrome, .

for(var i = 0; i < feedData.length; i++){
     (function( local_i ) {
        var x = ( ( local_i + 1) * diff );
        var t = r.text(x, 120, feedData[ local_i ].title).hide();

        var c = r.circle(x, 150, 10);
        c.attr({fill: "red"});
        c.attr({stroke: "red"});
        c.attr({title: feedData[ local_i ].title});             

        c.hover(function (event) {
            this.animate({r: 13}, 200);
            local_t.show();
        }, function (event) {
            this.animate({r: 10}, 200);
            local_t.hide();
        });
    })( i );         
}

, hover, .

Answer 3

, t - , hide(). , , show() hide() .

for(var i=0; i<feedData.length; i++){               
            var x = ((i+1)*diff);
            var t = r.text(x, 120, feedData[i].title); //remove hide() method
            var c = r.circle(x,150,10);
            c.attr({fill: "red"});
            c.attr({stroke: "red"});
            c.attr({title: feedData[i].title});
            t.hide() //try it here instead?
            c.hover(function (event) {
                this.animate({r: 13}, 200);
                t.show();
            }, function (event) {
                this.animate({r: 10}, 200);
                t.hide();
            });             
        }
