Best way to keep this JS DRY

Recommended Posts

How do I keep this type of code DRY..

 

var test = $(window).height();
    $('#selector').css('height', test);

$(window).resize(function() {
        $('#selector').css('height', test);
    });

 

It would of been a good idea to just set a static css height, but I want it to appear a certain way regardless of the amount of pixels a user has going down the vertical axis.

 

This is just an example, but on one of my projects i've found that i'm repeating myself a lot in scenarios such as the above.

 

Anyone got any good idea?

function windowResize(){
    var test = $(window).height();
    $('#selector').css('height', test);
}

$(window).resize('windowResize');
windowResize();

Yeah.. Is it weird I completely forgot about JS functions?

 

Thanks anyhow!
