Lack of functional programming courses I'd say :) And the fact that nowadays languages like JAVA don't have the concept of a function pointer/reference. So for some reason, people don't see the () as an actual operator. Diez --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TurboGears group.

PS. Here is my JS.
function showAvailableParameters(result) {
var v = document.getElementById('availableParameters')
v.innerHTML = result.responseText
}
requestAvailableParameters = function(option) {
str = getForm()
var s = availableParameters+str
var d = doSimpleXMLHttpRequest(s);
d.addCallback(showAvailableParameters);
}
function checkBoxChecked(){
var v = document.getElementById('availableParameters')
v.innerHTML=htmlbodybiLoading.../i/b/body/html
if (req)
{
req.cancel()
}
var m = MochiKit.Base;
seconds = '.2'
req = callLater(0.2, requestAvailableParameters('checkbox'))
}

I understand what you mean, but it is like if one's mind parse: callLater(0.5, foo()) Specially when you want to pass some other parameters to the function: callLater(0.5, foo(something=thatthing)) (of course, the quotes doesn't exist and are here just for emphasizing what might be on people's minds -- it was how I thought it at first...) -- Jorge Godoy [EMAIL PROTECTED] --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TurboGears group.
