Cool...I'll admit I don't really know what you mean by exposed?

Variable names should be descriptive.. I don't know what they mean but I'm assuming id probably call o config or something and a options

As far as the last point is concerned theres plenty of resources I can point you to if the linked one is insufficent (its my personal favourite) but I'm not going to write your code as I don't know whats supposed to be exposed | |

Also, could you emphasize a lot more on your last point? An example using my code would be of great help :) And globals are just variables declared at the global scope? So what is the benefit of using var? Stop strange bugs by not letting them get inside functions?

Thanks, are the only bad variable names o and a? Is this because they don't describe what they contain?
