[SOLVED] syntax

[Michdd]

I need to do this:

 

setTimeout("setHeight('" + id + "', 'dec', " + objHeight[id] + ")",(timer * speed));

It works when objHeight doesn't access part of an array, but obviously I'm doing something wrong. Because if I do alert(objHeight[id] right before this it shows that it has a value.

try...

//Javascript:
setTimeout(setHeight('id ', 'dec', objHeight[id]),(timer * speed));

I suspect it was the quotes around the function....

That's what makes it work :s. It has to have that. Anyway I decided to solve it the lazy way and just set objHeight[id] to a separate variable and use that in the function.:

 

var objectH = objectHeight[id];
setTimeout("setHeight('" + id + "', 'dec', " + objectH + ")",(timer * speed));
