Running javascript methods programmatically

Question

There is a webpage which has a javascript method in the following format:

window.usePlainText = function() {
    bla bla
}

A button on that same page calls the function using:

onlick = "return usePlainText();"

Here is how I tried to run it, but It did nothing:

WebBrowser.Document.InvokeScript("usePlainText()");

Thanks!

InvokeScript() takes a function name:

WebBrowser.Document.InvokeScript("usePlainText");

Thanks! On another site it had the "()" too! Guess that's where it got stuck in my head!
