[RESOLVED] Using "this" to call javascript function

[alirezaok]

hi

what is diffrence between onChange="this.submit()" and onChange="submit(this)" ?

thanks

Assuming that is added to an element inside a FORM tag (e.g. an INPUT element), nothing. submit() is a native function for FORMs (e.g. you can't define your own submit() function).

[alirezaok]

if submit changing to another word. example:

onChange="this.run()"
onChange="run(this)"

what is diffrence?

[bradgrafelman]

this.run() implies that the object has some sort of run() method native to it.

run(this), however, means that your own run() function is executed with a reference to the object passed as a parameter.
