Execute JavaScript code stored as a string

Question

How do I execute some JavaScript that is a string?

function ExecuteJavascriptString()
{
    var s = \"alert(\'hello\')\";
    // how do I get a browser to al         


        

Answer 1

eval(s);

Remember though, that eval is very powerful and quite unsafe. You better be confident that the script you are executing is safe and unmutable by users.
