Functions

These tutorials are about JavaScript and its use for client-side Web programming.

This tutorial has two (2) sub-sections.

JavaScript Functions

Functions allow the processing a JavaScript code to be deferred until the code block defined by the script is invoked by name.

A function is really nothing more than a named block of code. In naming it using function declaration syntax, it is implied that its execution is delayed until called for. All JavaScript code not contained in functions is run as soon as the script containing it is parsed.

This section looks at functions. There are two sections. The first is a very basic overview of functions. The second is a collection of advanced function topics.
