What does this code refer too?
queryString: function() {
//some code
}
I tested it in the WebConsole (Firefox) but it wouldn't execute, so I'm thinking that it isn't equivalent to function queryString() {}.
So what is it exactly?
You are missing some code there, but I assume its part of an object declaration like this:
var obj = {
queryString: function() {
//some code
}
};
obj.queryString();
It assigns a function as a property of an object literal. It would be equivalent to this:
var obj = {};
obj.queryString = function() { ... };
obj.queryString();
In general, the object literal syntax looks like this:
{ key: value, otherKey: otherValue };
So the reason this didn't work in the console is that it was not enclosed in {} characters, denoting an object literal. And this syntax is valid ONLY in an object literal.
