JavaScript Functions - 0 views

  • To keep the browser from executing a script when the page loads, you can put your script into a function.
  • A function contains code that will be executed by an event or by a call to the function.
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • You may call a function from anywhere within a page (or even from other pages if the function is embedded in an external .js file).
  • Functions can be defined both in the <head> and in the <body> section of a document. However, to assure that a function is read/loaded by the browser before it is called, it could be wise to put functions in the <head> section.
  • How to Define a Function Syntax function functionname(var1,var2,...,varX) { some code }
  • The { and the } defines the start and end of the function.
  • The parameters var1, var2, etc. are variables or values passed into the function.
  • A function with no parameters must include the parentheses () after the function name.
  • The word function must be written in lowercase letters, otherwise a JavaScript error occurs!
  • Also note that you must call a function with the exact same capitals as in the function name.
  • The return Statement The return statement is used to specify the value that is returned from the function. So, functions that are going to return a value must use the return statement.
  • <script type="text/javascript"> function product(a,b) { return a*b; } </script>
  • If you declare a variable, using "var", within a function, the variable can only be accessed within that function. When you exit the function, the variable is destroyed. These variables are called local variables.
  • You can have local variables with the same name in different functions, because each is recognized only by the function in which it is declared.
  • If you declare a variable outside a function, all the functions on your page can access it. The lifetime of these variables starts when they are declared, and ends when the page is closed.
