I was developing this quite long ago and can't remember now why I decided to create new object rather than put all properties and methods to the prototype. To all readers - try this new proposed approach first. If you experience problems with it, you can always use mine. And I'd appreciate if you post results of your implementation here :) This makes sense.

It's easy to be confused my JavaScript's somewhat complex object model. Instead of Popups.CommentBox = $.extend(true,{}, Popups.Box, { /* ... */ }); you should do Popups.CommentBox.prototype = $.extend(true, {}, new Popups.Box(), { /* ... */ }); You'll even get box = new Popups.CommentBox(); if( box instance Popup.CommentBox && box instanceof Popups.Box ) alert('You betcha!'); You’re doing it wrong.
