Pass a JavaScript function as parameter

Question

How do I pass a function as a parameter without the function executing in the \"parent\" function or using eval()? (Since I\'ve read that it\'s insecure.)

Answer 1

I chopped all my hair off with that issue. I couldn't make the examples above working, so I ended like :

function foo(blabla){
    var func = new Function(blabla);
    func();
}
// to call it, I just pass the js function I wanted as a string in the new one...
foo("alert('test')");

And that's working like a charm ... for what I needed at least. Hope it might help some.
