Isn't it easier to turn it into a loop instead? :)

You can just give it a name as so:
...
(function foo(k) {
if (k++ < 11) call foo(k);
...
You will be unable to use foo() even from within the function that
defined foo

another way (i think this might be deprecated)
"You can make recursive calls within an anonymous function using
arguments.callee , which is a reference to the currently executing
function (even if it has no name)."

Hi,
How can I recursively call an anonymous JS function? Something like:
var j = 1;
(function(k) {
if (k++ < 11) call myself(k);
})(j);
Thanks for any ideas,
Eric
