Dan
Is it possible to have a javascript function return a value to set a webpage
elements property?

Ie.

<td bgcolor=get_bac kground_colour( )>

Thanks for any help,
Dan.

No, there is no trigger.

if you want to trigger it at the end of page loading:

========

<body
onload="documen t.getElementByI d('mytd').style .backgroundColo r='blue'"


<td id="mytd">...

=========

if you want to trigger it on another event, please state the event.

I wish to execute code from a string. The string will have a function name, which will return a string: Dim a as string a = "MyFunctionName(param1, param2)" I have seen a ton of people discuss how reflection does this, but I cannot find the syntax to do this. I have tried several code example off of gotdotnet and other articles. Can somebody please show me the code to do this?

I am often in the situation where I want to act on the result of a function, but a simple boolean is not enough. For example, I may have a function called isAuthorised ( User, Action ) as ????? OK, this function may return a boolean, and if this is true, then no message back is really required, but if it fails then some supporting message needs to be returned to the calling code. As I see it there are a few options.

Ahoy... before I go off scouring particular platforms for specialized answers, I thought I would see if there is a portable C answer to this question: I want a function pointer that, when called, can be a genuine no-op. Consider: typedef int(*polymorphic_func)(int param);

Hi, I have just written a simple program to get me started in C that calculates the number of days since your birthdate. One thing that confuses me about the program (even though it works) is how global variables and function returns work... For example, I have a global array "char datestring;" which is defined in the function speakdate. speakdate just converts a set of integers (date variables) to a string.

hi, I would like to separate my javascript completely from my xhtml. in the end there should be only <script type="text/javascript" src="javalib.js"></script> in the head-tag to my javascript.
