Runs/Executes a string as JavaScript code.⤶
<note>This function does **NOT** evaluate expression (i.e. allow you to pass variables from JavaScript (JS) to Lua context).&lt;br&gt;Because a return value is nil/no value (a.k.a. void).&lt;br&gt;If you wish to pass/return values from JS to Lua, you may want to use <page>DHTML:AddFunction</page> function to accomplish that job.</note>⤶
