if (typeof MyObject === ’undefined’) MyObject= {};

Here is a jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/McWatt/apM58/I tested it in FF7, Chrome15, IE7/IE8/IE9 (well, not the real versions, but by switching browser mode in IE9 dev tools).I’m no js expert so you might want to double-check my code, which I modified from this stackoverflow answer: 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/858181/how-to-check-a-not-defined-variable-in-javascript/858193#858193

Do you still have plans on posting a follow up to this article? It would be nice to see some real-world examples. Thanks!

Which browser and OS are you using? I’ll update the post as soon as I have time. That line should work if you change it to if typeof(MyObject) != “object”) …
