what does it mean

[teng84]

Im not sure what does it mean

 

Search.prototype.getSearch= function(Url){

}

 

i cant figure out how does it work and how to alter please help

Well Search is a javascript class which has been declared previously someplace with

 

function Search() {
}

 

That code is using the "prototype" keyword to add a getSearch() method to the Search class, as well as any objects of Search that might have been instantiated.  Javascript lets you do that.  At some point I you could have code like this someplace:

 

asearch = new Search();
asearch.getSearch('http://www......');

thanks for the response

 

but when i have this Search.prototype.getSearch= function(Url){ }

 

is this function run when page load? or it take some function call to trigger this function?

You would need to call the function via the Search object. Whether or not that is done on page load would be up to you I suppose, I'm not sure it would make sense to do so.
