calling javascript functions

[ducky62]

is there a way to call a javascript function without an event

normally you put the calls in an onClick or onChange event, but I want

<TR>
<TD>
ToCurrency(1234);
</TD>
</TR>
but it just displays &quot;ToCurrency(1234)&quot;

any ideas

Thanks

I believe what you are attempting to do is write out the content of your function inside the table. For this you have to use the <script></script> tags as well as document.write() as follows :

<TR>
<TD>
<scrip>
document.write(ToCurrency(1234));
</script>
</TD>
</TR>

Is this what you need? Gary

Actually it should be

<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
ToCurrency(1234)
</script>

This will call the function ToCurrecy (it should be located above the code that calls the funciton

put aside the typo I had (scrip instead of script) the code I gave you should work great.

<script></script> takes by default the latest javascript/ecmascript engine the browser has.

Here is the typoless version :

<TR>
<TD>
<script>
document.write(ToCurrency(1234));
</script>
</TD>
</TR>
