I'm trying to figure out the exact syntax to send a "normalize" message to a polybuffer~ that I've created in javascript.

Based on this bit in the polybuffer/js help patcher:

// dynamically send any message to the polybuffer~ object

eval("pb." + messagename + "(arrayfromargs(arguments))");

Sending the message "0 normalize 0.1" to the above acts as expected.

 eval("pb.send" + "(0, "normalize", 0.1)" );

This returns an error: js:Javascript SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list

(which is over my head, as the parentheses seem in order)

eval("pb.send(" + (0, "normalize", 0.1) + ")");

eval("pb.send "+ ("(0, "normalize", 0.1)"));

returns js: Javascript SyntaxError: missing ) in parenthetical, line 44

I have basically been through every imaginable combinations of quotes and parentheses I can think of. Anybody have an idea of the right way to write this?

Based on this bit in the polybuffer/js help patcher:

// dynamically send any message to the polybuffer~ object
    if (arguments.length > 0) {
        eval("pb." + messagename + "(arrayfromargs(arguments))");

Sending the message "0 normalize 0.1" to the above acts as expected.

So, I've been trying  variations on this:
 eval("pb.send" + "(0, "normalize", 0.1)" );

This returns an error: js:Javascript SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list
(which is over my head, as the parentheses seem in order)

Tried this:
eval("pb.send(" + (0, "normalize", 0.1) + ")");
(no error but does nothing)

eval("pb.send "+ ("(0, "normalize", 0.1)"));
returns js: Javascript SyntaxError: missing ) in parenthetical, line 44
