How to Monitor Object Changes in All Browsers: A Cross-Browser Solution?

Monitoring Objects for Changes in All Browsers

Object.watch() and Object.Observe were once valuable tools for tracking object modifications. However, they are now deprecated and require viable alternatives.

One viable option is a jQuery plugin. However, there may be better cross-browser solutions.

Cross-Browser Alternative

One effective cross-browser alternative is a JavaScript shim library. It provides a consistent Object.watch() implementation across browsers.

Here's an example of how to use the shim library:

<code class="javascript">var options = {'status': 'no status'},
watcher = createWatcher(options);

watcher.watch("status", function(prop, oldValue, newValue) {
  console.log("old: " + oldValue + ", new: " + newValue);
  return newValue;
});

watcher.status = 'asdf';
watcher.status = '1234';

console.log(watcher.status);</code>
