Multiple Variables in Single Javascript Function?

[casbboy]

I have this function:

function DoViewMENU(tid1) {
document.getElementById(tid1).style.display = "";
if(tid1 == 'entertainment') {
DoHideIFRAME('world');
}
if(tid1 == 'world') {
DoHideIFRAME('entertainment');
}

}

I plan on having a bunch of sections and was wondering if there was a way to give more than one variable like so:

if(tid1 == 'world') {
DoHideIFRAME('entertainment, politics');
}

If somebody clicks on the 'entertainment' button I need to make sure all other button/menus are closed... and there are going to be a bunch.

Thanks

Certainly possible. You can call DoHideIFRAME like this:

 DoHideIFRAMES('entertainment','politics','younameit');
function DoHideIFRAMES() {
  for (var i=0; i<arguments.length;i++)
    DoHideIFRAME(arguments[i]);
} 

Here's another alternative which is less pure:

 DoHideIFRAMES('entertainment,politics,younameit');
function DoHideIFRAMES(names) {
  var namesarray = names.split(',');
  for (var i=0; i<namesarray.length;i++)
    DoHideIFRAME(namesarray[i].replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,''));
}
