calling Jquery function from javascript

Question

How can i call a jQuery function from javascript?

 //jquery
 $(function() {

        function my_fun(){
               /.. some operations ../
        } 
 });

 //just js
 function js_fun () {

       my_fun(); //== call jquery function 
 }

Yes you can (this is how I understand the original question). Here is how I did it. Just tie it into outside context. For example:

//javascript

my_function = null;

//jquery 
 $(function() { 

        function my_fun(){ 
               /.. some operations ../ 
        }  
        my_function = my_fun;
 }) 

 //just js 
 function js_fun () {  
       my_function(); //== call jquery function - just Reference is globally defined not function itself
}

I encountered this same problem when trying to access methods of the object, that was instantiated on DOM object ready only. Works. My example:

MyControl.prototype = {
   init:   function { 
        // init something
   }
   update: function () {
           // something useful, like updating the list items of control or etc.         
   }
}

MyCtrl = null;

// create jquery plug-in
$.fn.aControl = function () {
    var control = new MyControl(this);
    control.init();
    MyCtrl = control; // here is the trick
    return control;
}

now you can use something simple like:

function() = {
   MyCtrl.update(); // yes!
}
