cant invoke a function loaded thru a string

[newlearner]

Hi,
I load some javascript functions through a string in to a div of a html file

also i set an onclick event to a td thru setAttribute.

This works fine if there is just an alert or a scripts without functions (in this case the string is passed asit is).

the string is with function and statement inside it is written inside a div with creating script tags at he begging and end . Now When i assing the function to the td thru setAttribute the function inside the div is not called.

I tried it to insert into the Head tag also even then its not working.

the error is : the function is not defined.


Any Suggestions PLS
.... Looking Forward.
