callback function > return string

[pedroz]

I would like to get the word 'test' from the callback function psCallback below.

alert(opt); is now displaying the word 'test'

What am I doing wrong?

function psCallback() {
	var content = 'test';

return content;
}


jQuery(document).ready(function () {

var opt = {callback: psCallback};

alert(opt);	

return false;

});

The function psCallback is already returning 'test'.

Isn't it displaying something like "object Object"?

If all you want to do is call psCallback and use its output with alert, this would do

alert(psCallback());

Similarily, if what you want to do is call the function specified by the member "callback" of your anonymous object which has an instance assigned to opt,

alert(opt.callback());
