After the name of a function in JavaScript, within the parentheses, what type parameters/inputs could one use? Is there a clear list of examples easily available?
I am customizing my HTML/CSS/JavaScript project and would like to go a bit beyond what is being taught right now:
Example of code: <script type="text/javascript"> function doggybark() { document.getElementById('doggybark').play(); }

Have you any programming experience in other languages? It's probably similar, but perhaps a bit more extensive (depending on the other language).

9,189 PointsThank you Steven, this will help guide me into some additional research. I tend to get ahead of what I am learning sometimes.
In the past I had some Wordpress, Flash coding, Dreamweaver, and HTML/CSS lessens, but nothing extensive. I have decided to dive more into details by utilizing these courses.
I appreciate your quick response!
