Event handler bind to an anonymous function vs named function
event-handling, javascript, jquery
Solution
There won't be any noticeable performance difference.
One main difference is that with a named function you can also selectively unbind functions and not just all functions associated with an event type.
Of course, this can also help you avoid code duplication.
Problem
I know `.on()` exists with jQuery and `.bind()` should not be used in the future, considering that I have a version of jQuery greater than or equal to 1.7. What I want to know is this: are there are any differences between attaching an anonymous function or named function to an event handler using `.bind()`? Example: ``` // Anonymous function $(".warning").bind("click", function(){ alert("Hello"); }); // Named function $(".warning").bind("click", foo); function foo(){ alert("Hello"); } ``` Imagine that I have 100 `div`'s with the class `warning` in my page. The function `.bind()` will attach a new function to every handler with an anonymous function but will it be exactly the same with a named function in the very internal of JavaScript and jQuery? Thank you.
