JavaScript closures. Access in loop to current i, j variables [duplicate]

Answer 1

Other option can be storing data within the elements.

  for(var i = 0; i < 5; i++)
  {
      var tr = $('');
      for (var j = 0; j < 5; j++) 
      {
          var td = $('');
          this.data("position",{row:i, column:j});

          td.click(function() 
          {
            var position = this.data("position");
            alert(position.row + ' ' + position.column);  // here I want to access to CURRENT i, j variables
          })

          td.appendTo(tr);
      }
  }
