How to create namespaced static functions in Javascript?

Question

Right now, I'm using this fashion:

window.Foo = {
  alpha: function() {},
  bravo: function(arg) {}
}
window.Bar = {
  charlie: function(arg) {}
}

Foo.alpha()
Bar.charlie()

But I suspect that this is not the "correct" way to do things since (1) my IDE chokes up in understanding what I mean in several ways (e.g., won't autocomplete function names if I type in Foo.) and (2) if I iterate through the namespaces, and just return typeof eachone, I get String.

This code:

for(var key in window.Foo) 
{
  // Code  
}

only assigns the name of the property to the variable key, which is a string. If you need the associated object (or function), use this instead:

for(var key in window.Foo) 
{
  var obj = window.Foo[key];
  // Code using obj
}

As Matthew Flaschen said, dynamic languages such as JavaScript are hard to parse, so if your IDE doesn't understand something, don't worry too much about it.
