Reducing Code

I've found that I can reduce code by creating a function and calling it when it's required. Like this:

function Div1px10() {
document.getElementById('div1').style.top = "10px";
}

Then I call it like this

if (SomeVar) {
Div1px10();
}

Is there a way to do something like this?

function Div1Top() {
document.getElementById('div1').style.top ;
}

And then call it in another function like this?

if (SomeVar) {
Div1Top() = "20px"
}

I hope this makes sense, thanks for your help.

how about



function objectTop(objId,pos) {

document.getElementById(objId).style.top = pos + "px";

}





which you can call like this



objectTop("div1",10);

Awesome Brothercake, thank you.

Are these syntaxes correct? They work in IE6 and Mozilla 1.0 but I don't think that means much.

objectTop("div",a+b);

objectTop("div",ReturnToBottom());
