Javascript function arguments

Question

When using JavasScript code in ASP on Sun's server I have encountered a strange problem:-
Simple code to illustrate is
<%
function myClass()
this.myMethod=myClass_myMethod;
function myClass_myMethod(nNumber)
return nNumber+1;
var oObject=new myClass();
var nValue=oObject.myMethod(2);
%>
I am finding that the interpreter is not able to access the argument nNumber by name in myMethod.
Instead I have to use:
function myClass_myMethod()
var nNumber=myClass_myMethod.arguments[0];
return nNumber+1;
Any clues? Is it because the script is enclose in <% %> and not <SCRIPT runat=server> tags.

Hello,
Well this is more a pure javascript question than a HTML DB you should ask google.
But it depends what you are doing with your function, if each value is a specific variable then no your function will have to look like f(nul,null,null,1,null,null,null,.........) .
If you are using them to populate an js array you can iterate through your arguments or just provide the array are your argument.
Personally and I do know a little about javascript I would avoid like the plague any js function that requires 50 arguments ( i usally start looking at a different solution at abut 10 arguments) especially if most of them could be null, there absolutely has to be a better way to do it.
Like breaking up into smaller more specific functions or creating a js object that is more robust, agian you should ask google.
