Mirko,
You were missing a small but significant point. The function you call
must return a function.
$('#moon').click(myFunction('param'));
$('#earth').click(myFunction('param2'));
function myFunction(param) {
return function() { alert(param); };
}
I suggest studying this pattern closely; it's one of the most powerful
aspects of Javascript.
