SYNOPSIS

Void void( a x )

ARGUMENTS

x The value to discard

DESCRIPTION

Coerces any value to Void (i.e. discards it), usually used for discarding the result of a function. For example, the HTMLDocument(3kaya) functions for adding elements to the tree return the element just added, which is often not necessary.

 p = addParagraph(doc.body,"Hello ");
 void(appendInlineElement(p,StrongEmphasis,"World!"));

Another use is in discarding the return value from database update queries
