Javascript: node.onclick call a function not working

I use a loop through the node elements to get the ID from the clicked element. Until then all good and it works. Now I want to call an another function in my class & get this error:

this._PreLoad is not defined at HTMLElement.s.onclick

this._joinnews.forEach((node) => {
    node.onclick = function(){
        const requestData = `newsid=${node.id}`;
        // some code // 
        this._PreLoad(true); // ERROR
        // _PreLoad(true); not working
        // this._PreLoad(true).bind(this); not working (I am not yet familiar with the bind function)
    }
});

Are the functions inside a node loop unknown ?

The correct place to bind this is here:

node.onclick = function() {
    const requestData = `newsid=${node.id}`;
    // some code // 
    this._PreLoad(true);
}.bind(this); // bind here!

Alternatively, use an arrow function which preserves this as whatever it was at the time of the function declaration:

node.onclick = () => {
    const requestData = `newsid=${node.id}`;
    // some code // 
    this._PreLoad(true);
}
