Default function parameters in JavaScript

Is it possible to set default parameter values for functio开发者_StackOverflow社区ns in JavaScript like with PHP?

function phpFunc($param='defvalue'){
    echo $param;
}

phpFunc();

Would result in 'defvalue' being outputted...

Is this possible in javascript?

Thanks.

No, it's not possible. You would have to do something like this :

function jsFunc(param) {
  param = typeof param == 'undefined' ? 'defvalue' : param;
  return param;
}

alert( jsFunc() );               // shows defvalue
alert( jsFunc('Hello, world!');  // shows Hello, world!

Hope this helps!

Or just:

function jsFunc(param){
     param = param || defValue;
     return param;
 }
