Re: [Gmod-ajax] Callback function error with dbxrefs

[Colin <col...@gm...>]

I made a code fix to this link
https://jbrowse.org/jb2/docs/config_guides/customizing_feature_details/#example-a-generalized-solution-to-dbxrefs
just yesterday after I saw this thread, the diff was


old
  ;(typeof self !== 'undefined' ? self : window).JBrowsePluginMyPlugin = {
    default: Plugin, // this variable "Plugin" wasn't defined
  }

new


  ;(typeof self !== 'undefined' ? self : window).JBrowsePluginMyPlugin = {
    default: MyPlugin, // fixed! this refers to class MyPlugin. change to
DbxrefPlugin or whatever the name of your class is
  }
