Calling a function from another function Jquery

Question

I'm working on a website for kids where they can play a simple Higher-Lower game with cards programmed in Jquery. I'm stuck on one particular part of my code though. I could fix it by writing a mass of double code, but there has to be a more efficient way to do it.

Edit: So the real question is, how do I call one function from another? Like a method.

I want to call my Kaartgenereren function from my Hoger() function.

function KaartGenereren() {...}

This is how I tried to call the function:

function Hoger(){
 oudekaart = kaartnummer;
 do{
 $.Kaartgenereren(); ...}while(...)}

I've also tried it without the $. and the (), but it led to no result.

I hope someone will be able to help me. Thanks in advance!

• aug: FYI Javascript is case-sensitive so if your function is called KartGenereren you should make sure the K and G are capitalized.

Answer 1

The correct way is

KaartGenereren();

but you have to fix a typo first

Kaartgenereren vs KaartGenereren

• M. Boeckx: Thanks! That worked! I could've searched for hours to find that typo :)
• km6zla: Just use your javascript console. It would have told you right away that the function was not defined.
• M. Boeckx: I did, and it said so indeed. But I assumed it would have something to do with functions not being recognised in other functions. (I'm very new to Jquery)

Answer 2

function Hoger(){
 oudekaart = kaartnummer;
 do {
 KaartGenereren();
 ...
 } while(...);
}

• ajp15243: You missed the function name's typo when it's called.
