    Ok. So to have an anchor do something on MouseOver, you’d use this code:

    <a id="aHw" href="#" onmouseover="doSomething()">test</a>
    

    You can pass a function to another function this way:

    function callSomeFunction( fn )
    {
        fn();
    }
    
    callSomeFunction( alert );
    

    Or you can pass an anonymous function to the above:

     callSomeFunction( function(){ alert( "Finally! A message!" ); } );
    

    If you’re trying to pass the name of a function as a string (which is a fundamentally bad idea and a terrible risk and hard to debug and DON’T DO IT), then you can use eval:

    function callNamedFunction( fn )
    {
       eval(fn)()
    }
    

    Or you might be able to get away with:

    function callNamedFunction( fn )
    {
       (window[fn])()
    }
