Edit Question
Title
Body
I have an issue trying to make a function global when it is involved in closure. In the code listed below I have an anonymous method which defines at new function on the window called, getNameField . (function () { function alertError (msg) { alert(msg); } window.getNameField = function (fieldId) { try{ if(!fieldId) { fieldId='name'; } return document.getElementById(fieldId); } catch(e) { alertError(e); } }; }()); alert(getNameField().value); This works great in the browser, but when I run the code in JSLint.com with "Disallow undefined variables" turned on it gives me an error. Problem at line 17 character 7: ' getNameField ' is not defined. Can you help me fix this so that JSLint actually understands that this function should be considered global?
