copied!<p>You need to create a new variable on each pass through the loop, so that it'll get captured in the closures you're creating for the event handlers.</p> <p>However, merely moving the variable declaration into the loop won't accomplish this, because <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61552/are-there-legitimate-uses-for-javascripts-with-statement/185283#185283">JavaScript doesn't introduce a new scope for arbitrary blocks</a>.</p> <p>One easy way to force the introduction of a new scope is to use another anonymous function:</p> <pre><code>for (var i=0;i<inlineRangeNavUrls.length;i++) { curDiv='#' + inlineRangeNavUrls[i][1]; if ($(curDiv).length) { (function(curTab) { $(curDiv).bind("mouseover", function(){showHideRangeSlidingTabs(curTab, true);} ); $(curDiv).bind("mouseout", function(){showHideRangeSlidingTabs(curTab, false);} ); })(inlineRangeNavUrls[i][0]); // pass as argument to anonymous function - this will introduce a new scope } } </code></pre> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1203876/how-to-pass-a-variable-by-value-to-an-anonymous-javascript-function/1203917#1203917">As Jason suggests</a>, you can actually clean this up quite a bit using jQuery's built-in <a href="http://docs.jquery.com/Events/hover" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>hover()</code></a> function:</p> <pre><code>for (var i=0;i<inlineRangeNavUrls.length;i++) { (function(curTab) // introduce a new scope { $('#' + inlineRangeNavUrls[i][1]) .hover( function(){showHideRangeSlidingTabs(curTab, true);}, function(){showHideRangeSlidingTabs(curTab, false);} ); // establish per-loop variable by passsing as argument to anonymous function })(inlineRangeNavUrls[i][0]); } </code></pre>
