Coffeescript onclick referencing this not working

Nov 17, 2011 - 1 minutes

When defining a event listener for objects in Coffeescript you nede to make sure you use a -> – using a => will result in any references to attr() be “undefined”

Here is an example of some correct on click bindings that use the attr() methods

1  jQuery ($) ->
2  $('[id^=story_]').click ->
3    $( "#" +  $(this).attr("id") + "_loader")
4      .load('/projects/' + $(this).attr('project_id') +
5      '/story_types/' + $(this).attr('story_type_id') +
6      '/stories/'+ $(this).attr('story_id') + '/tasks/new')
