Contents
dojo.withGlobal provides a mechanism by which a function can have its dojo.global and dojo.doc scope temporarily changed. This allows complete scope changes without affecting other items in the current dojo applications.
Introduction¶
This function provides a quick way to alter both the dojo.global scope and the dojo.doc document scope with a single call. You pass in a global scope (window object) and if it contains a “document” property, it is used in place of the default dojo.doc for the life of the function call. This call makes it possible for widgets that are dojo.global and dojo.doc scope-control away to have their scopes changed temporarily without affecting the rest of the page.
Usage¶
Use this function to replace the globals for a callback. Only during the callback execution, dojo.global and dojo.doc will be assigned to the values you specify.

var newGlobal = ifr.contentWindow; // get the global scope object from the frame
//Call a callback with different 'global' values and context.
dojo.withGlobal(newGlobal, function() {
console.log("The current dojo.global is: ", dojo.global);
console.log("The current dojo.doc is: ", dojo.doc);
console.log("The current scope is: ", this);
}, this);
