New I think you're missing the 'anonymous' part. 
\n1  function test_this() {\n2      for_each(document.js_test_form.elements,\n3               function (test_element) { alert (test_element.name); }\n4               )\n5  }


Notice how line 3 is both a complete function definition, and an argument being passed to the test_this function, inline.

The Sig:
"Despite the seemingly endless necessity for doing
so, it's actually not possible to reverse-engineer intended invariants
from staring at thousands of lines of code (not in C, and not in
Python code either)."

             I must be missing something - (drewk) - (16) - Feb. 4, 2005, 12:07:20 AM EST
                 Very likely. - (static) - (4) - Feb. 4, 2005, 12:13:12 AM EST
                     Define "streams or generators" - (drewk) - (3) - Feb. 4, 2005, 12:26:50 AM EST
                         They are names of concepts, at least one analog you know - (ben_tilly) - (2) - Feb. 4, 2005, 12:49:21 AM EST

                                 Yes. And you're hoping that the promises are kept. :-) -NT - (ben_tilly) - Feb. 4, 2005, 02:01:21 AM EST
                 There are several benefits - (ben_tilly) - (10) - Feb. 4, 2005, 12:33:11 AM EST
                     Much better - (drewk) - (5) - Feb. 4, 2005, 12:42:31 AM EST
                         Anonymous functions and closures - (ben_tilly) - (4) - Feb. 4, 2005, 01:27:36 AM EST
                             Looks like it's treating 'i' as a reference - (drewk) - (3) - Feb. 4, 2005, 02:21:50 AM EST
                                 I said "invocation of the function" for a reason - (ben_tilly) - (2) - Feb. 4, 2005, 02:39:58 AM EST
                                     You're right about not getting it without using it - (drewk) - (1) - Feb. 4, 2005, 10:02:47 AM EST
                                         I'm sure that you AREN'T using closures - (ben_tilly) - Feb. 4, 2005, 09:03:45 PM EST
                     Can't make your example work - (drewk) - (2) - Feb. 4, 2005, 09:56:03 AM EST
