Call jquery function from html for parsing

Question

I wonder is there a way to call my jquery function from my html code.

here's my code :

html side :

<td style="text-align:left;" align="left" >
    <div id="bulletin-timestamp" >
        doTimeStamp(${bulletinTimeStamp[status.index]})
    </div>
</td>

jquery side :

function doTimeStamp(x) {
    // do some parsing work
        return result;
}

I've tried

＜script type="text/javascript"＞doTimeStamp(${bulletinTimeStamp[status.index]})＜/script＞

but no effect..

Thanks!!

It sounds like you would benefit from a [javascript templating library](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/449780/recommended-javascript-html-template-library-for-jquery) — Steve Greatrex, Oct 24 '13 at 08:36
${bulletinTimeStamp[status.index]} is from my servlet's attribute — Mozzan, Oct 24 '13 at 08:52

You can't just return result. You need to add something to the DOM. In your script:

$('#bulletin-timestamp').text(doTimeStamp(x));
