Mustache function arguments and javascript

Question

Peace of mustache template:

        <span class="frameSpec blackBg">{{#i18n}}Kids{{/i18n}}</span>

Peace of javascript code:

// Preparing data to view
var items = {
            'items': data.matches,
            'i18n' : function(){
               return get_translation(key);
             }
            };
        //--

$("#items").append(Mustache.render(items_template, items));

This doesn't work, key always is undefinded?

Where does key come from? It's not mentioned anywhere else in your code other than when trying to call the get_translation function. — Anthony Grist

This is the fix for my code:

// Preparing data to view
var items = {
    'items': data.matches,
    'i18n' : function(){
        return function(key){
            return get_translation(key);
        }
     }
};
//--

Maybe you should type the function like that:

'i18n' : function(key) {
   return get_translation(key);
}

I.e. the key variable is not defined and probably is passed as a parameter of your function.
