Sorry, I should have mentioned that func.call(Something, arg0, arg1, ...);
and func.apply(Something, [arg0, arg1, ...]); and Something[functionNameAsString](arg0, arg1, ...); are all functionally equivalent.

Among the different commands in those script I want to be able to write for example <function>processInput</function> and have my component read the script and call the processInput() function. How would I do this ? Is there a way to call a function when the name of the function you want to call is stored in a string? Something callFunction(functionName[, parameters]) Hope somebody can answer me(I never got any answers to my question to [EMAIL PROTECTED])...
