Lighthouse has a new layout. Prefer the old one? Return to the old layout, and switch back any time from the link at the top of each page.

Something like Mootools Class.Binds would be nice to facilitate proper binding of methods.

#242

When we organize the client side UI into many classes, many instance methods are called from within other functions (like event listeners) and will need an explicit 'bind' to make them work in the correct context.
It will be nice to have something like Mootools 'Binds' - http://mootools.net/docs/more/Class/Class.Binds

Thanks,
Gokul.

    I've added the feature, but named it prebind which sounds more correct to me

    var A = new Class({
  prebind: $w('boo hoo'),

  boo: function() { 
  },

  hoo: function() {
  }
});

    It will go public with the 1.6 release. It also available in master at github
