Question

I have a javascript function which is called from another function I have.

For some reasons, this function is not executed each time when called. I have tryed to change the name of the function, and then everything works fine.

I don’t understand why. Here is a litle example:

javascript 1:

function a()
{ 
   b();
}

javascript 2:

function b()
{ 
   c();
}

javascript 3:

function c()
{ 
   alert("Function c");
}

The function c is not executed for some reasons… If for example the function c will be called newC(), then it works fine.

Answer 1

You probably have a conflict of names in the scope of b() i.e. when b() is executed, it can happen that c is defined to something else in a current scope.

Solution: Start your JavaScript debugger, set a breakpoint in b() and check what c is at that time.
