正如Marius已经指出的，可以在函数中使用公共静态变量。

我通常使用它们来创建只执行一次的函数，或者缓存一些复杂的计算结果。

下面是我以前的“单例”方法的例子:

var singleton = function(){ 

  if (typeof arguments.callee.__instance__ == 'undefined') { 

    arguments.callee.__instance__ = new function(){

      //this creates a random private variable.
      //this could be a complicated calculation or DOM traversing that takes long
      //or anything that needs to be "cached"
      var rnd = Math.random();

      //just a "public" function showing the private variable value
      this.smth = function(){ alert('it is an object with a rand num=' + rnd); };

   };

  }

  return arguments.callee.__instance__;

};


var a = new singleton;
var b = new singleton;

a.smth(); 
b.smth();

如您所见，在这两种情况下构造函数都只运行一次。

For example, I used this approach back in 2004 when I had to create a modal dialog box with a gray background that covered the whole page (something like Lightbox). Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6 have the highest stacking context for <select> or <iframe> elements due to their "windowed" nature; so if the page contained select elements, the only way to cover them was to create an iframe and position it "on top" of the page. So the whole script was quite complex and a little bit slow (it used filter: expressions to set opacity for the covering iframe). The "shim" script had only one ".show()" method, which created the shim only once and cached it in the static variable :)

方法(或函数)可以在不是它们设计使用的类型的对象上调用。这对于在自定义对象上调用本机(快速)方法非常有用。

var listNodes = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
listNodes.sort(function(a, b){ ... });

这段代码崩溃是因为listNodes不是数组

Array.prototype.sort.apply(listNodes, [function(a, b){ ... }]);

这段代码之所以有效，是因为listNodes定义了足够多的类数组属性(length，[]运算符)供sort()使用。

嗯，这不是一个很重要的功能，但它非常有用:

显示可选择和格式化的警报:

alert(prompt('',something.innerHTML ));

JavaScript没有块作用域(但它有闭包，所以让我们称它为偶数?)

var x = 1;
{
   var x = 2;
}
alert(x); // outputs 2

在Crockford的《Javascript: The Good Parts》中也提到过:

parseInt()是危险的。如果你给它一个字符串而不告诉它正确的进制，它可能会返回意想不到的数字。例如，parseInt('010')返回8，而不是10。传递一个base给parseInt可以使它正确工作:

parseInt('010') // returns 8! (in FF3)
parseInt('010', 10); // returns 10 because we've informed it which base to work with.
