Declaring a member function in JS

Question

I\'ve tried two ways to declare a member function in JS:

function init() {
    var name = \"Mozilla\";
    function displayName() {
        alert(name);
             


        

Answer 1

In your first method:

function init() { var name = "Mozilla"; function displayName() { alert(name); } } a = new init(); a.displayName()

function displayName(){} only can be called in init(), it's like private function, so can not be used as a public function of the object(init())
