scope - Javascript game loop state in an anonymous function -


i'm messing around canvas, , starting reading bunch of game loop snippets/posts , combining them best 1 possible.

i came upon snippet today (it's part way through a post, make further iterations on later. i'm integrating ideas go), it's perplexing me little.

game.run = (     function() {         var loops = 0;         var skipticks = 1000 / game.fps;         var maxframeskip = 10;         var nextgametick = (new date).gettime();          return function {             loops = 0;              while ((new date).gettime() > nextgametick && loops < maxframeskip) {                 game.update();                 nextgametick += skipticks;                 loops++;             }              game.draw();         };     } )();  game._intervalid = setinterval(game.run, 1000 / game.fps);

so game.run gets assigned result of outer function, inside function. inside function relies on nextgametick, defined in outer function...

so game keeping state in outer anonymous function? if so, ideas why did that?

and e.g. loops, set 0 every call, declared outside avoid re-declaring variable again each time?

yes will.

the local frame of function returned inside local frame of game.run function. therefore, variable gets changed in game.run around function return persistent. parent frame of function inside of game.run time try reference nexttick variable.

css - Make div keyboard-scrollable in jQuery Mobile? -

from can tell, although jquery-mobile-powered pages can contain divs overflow set scroll or auto, , these divs can scrolled one-screen bar or mouse wheel, cannot scrolled using arrow keys, page-up/page-down, or home/end. instead, official "page" div (with data-role="page") absorbs input. perhaps other divs can't acquire focus, i'm not sure. is there way around this? edit: jsfiddle of simple example: https://jsfiddle.net/qogz0shx/ <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquerymobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile.min.js"> </script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.css"/> <style> #outer { overflow:scroll; height: 50vh; width: 50vw; } #inner { height: 500vh; width: 500vw; } ...
