[fixed] jquery selector returning undefined object

[DarkPikachu]

this is an issue I'm having with extension plugins for my real-time BBC preview plugin

here's the handler: (operates per key press)

           $(".preview-area.message").html( '<br/>'+convert_bbc_to_html($(".editor.bbcode-editor").children()[0].value)+'<br/><br/><br/>' );
           for ( eid=0; eid<window.Tcll5850_RTBBCP_extensions.length; eid++ ) { window.Tcll5850_RTBBCP_extensions[eid]( $(".preview-area.message") ); };



the .html() part works just fine, but that's all that works...
the JQuery '.message' node that the plugins expect somehow doesn't get passed to the extension plugins...

how this works... here's a setup for an extension:

function parse_function( node ) {
   var codes = []; node.find('code').each(function() { codes.push($(this).html()); }); // backup code blocks
   var quotes = []; node.find('.quote_body').each(function() { quotes.push($(this).html()); }); // backup quotes

   // operate on the post here

   var i=0; node.find('code').each(function() { $(this).html(codes[i]); i = i+1; }); // restore code blocks
   i=0; node.find('.quote_body').each(function() { $(this).html(quotes[i]); i = i+1; });  // restore quotes
};

$(document).ready(function() {
   try { window.Tcll5850_RTBBCP_extensions.push( parse_function ); }
   catch(exc){}; //preview plugin not found

   var name = proboards.data('route').name;
   if (name.match(/(thread|conversation)|(new|quote|edit)_(thread|post|mess|conversation|user_conversation)/)) {
       $('.content .message').each(function() { parse_function($(this)); });
   };
});


when the extension functions are actually passed, I get:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'find' of undefined
returned from the extension.

anyone know what's going on?? :/

found out what the problem was...
me being an idiot again... heh

in my post pack 1 plugin which offers [glow], [style]/[class], and [ code] modifications, the main function:
Tcll5850_BBCPP1_parse(type, node)
was being called with the handler above...

the fix was to pass this to the handler instead:
function Tcll5850_BBCPP1_preview(node) { Tcll5850_BBCPP1_parse(null, node) };

the 'type' in my PP1 plugin is strictly for styles and codes.
since styles modify their own separate namespaces based on the type and content ID,
and since we don't want codes in sigs.
