I'd just like a little guidence with this one please. How (if you can) can I call a function in a function. The first function being outside the 2nd one. Example:

Function test1() {
...blah blah code.....
}

Function test2() {
call test1()
}

Thanks for any help. Sorry for the easy question.

code:

---

function test1() {
...blah blah code.....
}

function test2() {
test1();
}

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't JavaScript different to the JScript we use in WLM P!

Ok thanks very much. For anyone seeking this answer. It's quite simple:

code:

---

function test1() {
blah..blah..code
};

function test2() {
test1();
};

Yes, functions are global and so can be called from anywhere. It's only the variables withinn functions that stay within the function.

Yeah - I was talking about situations like

var test = 123;
function t() { Debug.Trace(test); }

Does anybody know if Jscript is pass-by-value of pass-by-reference? I think it is the latter.

Though you can carry it over to another function when you call upon that second function, you just have to put it between the brackets.

---

Like this:

code:

---

function test1(value) {
    Debug.Trace(value)
};

function test2() {
   test1('hi');
};

---

That's wrong?

var Globe1 = "Hello World"

function DoTheBanana() {
        var Localfruit = "Hello bananatown";
        Debug.Trace('Localfruit: ' + Localfruit);
}

function DoTheConga() {
        // Localfruit isn't valid in this function since it is declared locally inside DoTheBanana()
        // It's scope begins and ends in the function DoTheBanana()
        // Globe1 is valid in this function since it is declared globally.
        Debug.Trace('Globe1: ' + Globe1)
        var Localvar = "Hello bananatown";

        // Notice that we can declare a local variable to this function and that it will keep its value, even if have another local variable with the same name inside the DoTheBanana() function.
        var Localfruit = "I hate bananas";
        DoTheBanana();
        Debug.Trace('Localfruit: ' + Localfruit);
}

function NowForSomethingDifferent() {
        // Let's create a local function which is only valid inside NowForSomethingDifferent()
        function WoowLocalFunction() {
                Debug.Trace('This is a local function')
        }
        // And call it
        WoowLocalFunction();
}
