Some questions

[seb-thomas]

Hiya, not really an issue, but don't think anyone will look at the comments on a year old article! :)

From my comment on ALA:

Thanks for the great article!

My only problem is that it's not only obviously a good intro to testing, but also a good introduction to deferreds, RSVP and how to better structure your code. It's a bit of a jump from the procedural way (I would have written it) to the uncoupled way.


I've done my own non-backbone version and got it to a point where I understand all the parts except for what's going on here

Anyone get why this is needed? I've put a break on it and it doesn't seem like the contents of the 'if' ever gets run.


Also, does anyone understand why 'ajax' works but using 'get' instead returns an empty results object?

 {"results":[]}

btw, anyone using input type 'search' instead of 'text' might find that 2 results are returned, the first being empty. In Chrome at least. Was driving me mad for a quite some time!

If anyone has any answers, I'd be pleased to hear em! ta
