Question

Answer 1

Use the apply method of a function:-

function mainfunc (func){
    window[func].apply(null, Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1));
} 

Edit: It occurs to me that this would be much more useful with a slight tweak:-

function mainfunc (func){
    this[func].apply(this, Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 1));
} 

This will work outside of the browser (this defaults to the global space). The use of call on mainfunc would also work:-

function target(a) {
    alert(a)
}

var o = {
    suffix: " World",
    target: function(s) { alert(s + this.suffix); }
};

mainfunc("target", "Hello");

mainfunc.call(o, "target", "Hello");
