How to call outer function's return from inner function?

rated 0 times [ 153] [ 7] / answers: 1 / hits: 23372 / 15 Years ago, wed, march 24, 2010, 12:00:00

I have such code:

function allValid() {

    $('input').each(function(index) {

        if(something) {

            return false; 

        }    

    });



    return true;

}

which always returns true as return false; affects anonymous inner function. Is there an easy way to call outer function's return?

PS. I am not looking for a workaround, just want to know the answer to original question. If the answer is not possible it is fine.

Yeah, store it in a local variable.

function allValid() {

  var allGood = true;

  $('input').each(function (index) {

    if (something) {

      allGood = false;

    }

  });



  return allGood;

}
