I'm not sure that the javascript action attributes can be set in that
way. You'll be setting the attribute to the string which is the second
parameter to your function, but the system doesn't know that said string
is a function to be called. The better way to do this is to use the
Event.observe() function [1] like this:
Event.observe("buttonID", "click", function() {
myFunction('myVariable') });
