copied!<p>Is it possible to override functions contained in a minified Javascript file?</p> <p>Details: I'm attempting to override the process() function within the Twitter Boootstrap Typeahead plugin (v2.3.2) in order to add an indicator at the bottom of the drop-down if items returned exceed the items displayed.</p> <p>Here is my code:</p> <pre><code>var customProcess = function (items) { var that = this items = $.grep(items, function (item) { return that.matcher(item) }) items = this.sorter(items) if (!items.length) { return this.shown ? this.hide() : this } //Get the default item slice and determine whether the indicator is needed var itemSlice = items.slice(0, this.options.items); if (items.length > this.options.items) { itemSlice.push("..."); } return this.render(itemSlice).show(); }; // Reassign the typeahead.process() function to the customized // version that adds a visual indicator if more items are // returned than the amount shown (options.items). $.fn.typeahead.Constructor.prototype.process = customProcess; </code></pre> <p>If I'm using the minified version of the Bootstrap JavaScript (bootstrap.min.js) this fails and actually kills the typeahead functionality completely. If I instead source the non-minified version (bootstrap.js), it works perfectly. </p> <p>[As a side note, I previously used the same approach with an older version of the typeahead plugin (v1.8.x I believe) and it worked perfectly with the minimized version as well. Did I just get lucky?]</p>
