Yes that is possible. its called a default value. The only rule is that parameters with default values come after parameters without.

 

 

//wrong

function something($a = 'cool', $b)

{

}

 

//right

function something($a, $b = 'cool')

{

}

Considering this topic is in the Javascript forum, the correct answer is no, you cannot. Javascript has no concept of default values for function parameters. What you have to do is check whether the parameter was defined and if not, set the default.

 

function someFunction(bob){
   if (bob === undefined){ bob = true; }

   //...
}
