Javascript function

hi all,

I have a javascript function that inputs span tags around some text in any web page I access. In between these tags, I put onmouseover = Somefunction().
This "Somefunction()" is stored in the same js file which does the insertion.

However I noticed that nothing is happening as Somefunction() is not defined.
Do i have to insert the Somefunction() into the webpage aswell or is there a way I can direct the call to the function in the javascript file?

Thanks alot

sounds like it. All yoiu need to do is include script tags with the src

Thank you TinyScript for your reply.
I really appreciate it.

Can u explain a bit better where I have to put the script and src.

My code is the following:

function something()

wArea = content.document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0];
var openTag = '<span onMouseOver = "testButton()" >';
var closetag = '</span>';
workText = content.getSelection().getRangeAt(0);
var currReplace = new RegExp("("+workText+")");
wArea.innerHTML = wArea.innerHTML.replace(currReplace, openTag+"$1"+closeTag);

As you can see, I am inserting the onmouseover = testButton() as a string in the web page. The function testbutton() is saved in the same js file as function something(). This something() is called when the user clicks on a button I created in Firefox toolbar.

thank you for your time
