How to translate js function 'this' ?

It is impossible to get to true this in amber block (inside method, it's self, of course). There is a transformation that allows you capture this, though:

 [ :thisarg :otherarg | ...code... ] currySelf

produces a block that does ...code... but the first argument (thisarg in the example) is not an argument any more, it just holds 'this'.

I had codes from javascript/jquery to translate to amber smalltalk equivalent:
     $('.president').bind('mouseover click', function(){
        var loc = $(this).attr('rel');

        if (loc&&  loc.indexOf(',')>  0) {

        loc = loc.split(',');
        $('.zoom').anythingZoomer( loc[0], loc[1] );

I'm doing this way:
     '.president' asJQuery bind: 'mouseover click' with: [
           | loc |
        loc = this attr: 'rel'.
        [ loc and: ( ( loc indexOf: ',' )>  0) ] ifTrue: [
                loc := loc split: ','.
        '.zoom' asJQuery anythingZoomer: ( loc at: 0 ) with:  ( loc at: 1 ) ].
        ^ false ].

but failed, the 'this' ins

ide the callback function is not correct that should be the current tagbrush hovered,

changing to 'this' asJQuery or 'self asJQuery , are all the same failed.

How to solved? ( I could workaround it by coding indivisual onMouseover callbacks of each 'a' tagbrush).

thanks.
