DHTML:QueueJavascript#528298
<function name="QueueJavascript" parent="DHTML" type="panelfunc">
<ispanel>yes</ispanel>
<description>
Runs/Executes a string as JavaScript code in a panel.
<note>This function does **NOT** evaluate expression (i.e. allow you to pass variables from JavaScript (JS) to Lua context).<br/>Because a return value is nil/no value (a.k.a. void).<br/>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>
<note>If <page>Panel:IsVisible</page> is `false`, <page>Panel:Think</page> will **NOT** run, meaning the Javascript Queue will not be processed.</note>
<note>If <page>Panel:IsVisible</page> is `false`, <page>Panel:Think</page> will **NOT** run, meaning the Javascript Queue will not be processed.<br/><br/>Consider using <page>Panel:SetPaintedManually</page> instead of <page>Panel:SetVisible</page> if you need to hide the panel.</note>

<code>
-- First we create a container, in this case it is a full-screen Derma Frame window.
local dframe = vgui.Create( 'DFrame' )
dframe:SetSize( ScrW(), ScrH() )
dframe:SetTitle( "Garry's Mod Wiki" )
dframe:Center()
dframe:MakePopup() -- Enable keyboard and mouse interaction for DFrame panel.
-- Create a new DHTML panel as a child of dframe, and dock-fill it.
local dhtml = vgui.Create( 'DHTML', dframe )
dhtml:Dock( FILL )
-- Navigate to Garry's Mod wikipedia website.
dhtml:OpenURL( 'https://wiki.garrysmod.com/index.php' )
-- Run JavaScript code.
dhtml:QueueJavascript( "document.body.innerHTML = 'HTML changed from Lua using JavaScript!';" )
-- This does not throw an error/exception, but instead returns nil/no value.
-- That means you can't pass/return values from JavaScript back to Lua context using this function.
local number = dhtml:QueueJavascript( '22;' )
print( number )
</code>
<output>Inner HTML of document body in DHTML panel is now set to "HTML changed from Lua using JavaScript!".</output>
