[SOLVED] javascript OOP question


Recommended Posts

OK this is probably impossible but I am wondering if there is a way.

Let me give an example first lets say i have an javascript object

function Cat(){
  this.name;
  this.showVar=function(){
  };
}

//create object
var DJ_Kat=new Cat();

 

here is the trickey part I was wondering if i could make the function showVar alert the variable its stored in.

in code

//this will alert "DJ_Kat"
this.showVar()

is this even possible or do i have to store the var name inside a var?

because when i try

alert(DJ_Kat);

it shows clearly that its an object
