Why can't I access method in Script Include

Hi,

I have a script include and catalog client script that instantiates and access the script include. Problem is, it does not return the value.

Script Include

==========

var acn_catalogClientScripts = Class.create();

acn_catalogClientScripts.prototype = {

      initialize: function() {

            this.errorMessage = "";

      },

  sampleFunction: function(){

  return "SampleAnswer!";

  },

      type: 'acn_catalogClientScripts'

};

Catalog client script

=================

var validation = new gacn_catalogClientScripts();

var validation_result = validation.sampleFunction();

g_form.addErrorMessage("Value is " + validation_result);

validation_result does not return anything. Please help. Do I really have to use GlidAjax for this? As per my understanding, accessing script include can be done this way.

All i know is initialize is the function coming from super class and they mentioned on wiki like


  • Avoid overriding methods of AbstractAjaxProcessor, including initialize. While it is possible to invoke methods of your superclass object which you have overridden, it is complicated and best avoided altogether.
