<script type="text/x-red" data-help-name="function">
	<p>A function block where you can write code to do more interesting things.</p>
	<p>The message is passed in as a JavaScript object called <code>msg</code>.</p>
	<p>By convention it will have a <code>msg.payload</code> property containing
	   the body of the message.</p>
	<p>The function should return the messages it wants to pass on to the next nodes
	in the flow. It can return:</p>
	<ul>
	  <li>a single message object - passed to nodes connected to the first output</li>
	  <li>an array of message objects - passed to nodes connected to the corresponding outputs</li>
    </ul>
    <p>If any element of the array is itself an array of messages, multiple
	      messages are sent to the corresponding output.</p>
	<p>If null is returned, either by itself or as an element of the array, no
	      message is passed on.</p>
	<p>See the <a target="_new" href="http://nodered.org/docs/writing-functions.html">online documentation</a> for more help.</p>
