Can I name a JavaScript function and execute it immediately?

Question

I have quite a few of these:

function addEventsAndStuff() {
  // bla bla
}
addEventsAndStuff();

function sendStuffToServer() {
  // send stuff
  // get HTML         


        

Answer 1

Your code contains a typo:

(function addEventsAndStuff() {
  alert('oele');
)/*typo here, should be }*/)();

so

(function addEventsAndStuff() {
  alert('oele');
 })();

works. Cheers!

[edit] based on comment: and this should run and return the function in one go:

var addEventsAndStuff = (
 function(){
  var addeventsandstuff =  function(){
    alert('oele');
  };
  addeventsandstuff();
  return addeventsandstuff;
 }()
);
