Pass string as a parameter

Question

I am passing string to a function but its giving me an error :

assignAttr(var menu="menu", var container="menu_container",var text="menu_text");

function assignAttr(menu,container,text)
{
 alert(menu + container + text);
}

Answer 1

Proper code is like this:

function assignAttr(menu,container,text) { 
  alert(menu + container + text); 
}

var menu="menu";
var container="menu_container";
var text="menu_text";
assignAttr(menu, container, text);

The code serves the purpose of display how to use a variable as a parameter.

And of course you can write function call as:

assignAttr("menu", "menu_container", "menu_text");

Answer 2

You simply need to call the function like this:

assignAttr("menu", "menu_container", "menu_text");

Answer 3

You can not declare the variables like this. You need to do it like:

var menu="menu"; 
var container="menu_container";
var text="menu_text";

assignAttr(menu, container, text); 

function assignAttr(menu,container,text) 
{ 
 alert(menu + container + text); 
}
