Function return

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

Ie.

<td bgcolor=get_background_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="document.getElementById('mytd').style.back groundColor='blue'"


<td id="mytd">...

=========

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