Suppose you wrote a compiler that translates to JavaScript in continuation-passing style. (Or suppose you wrote all your JavaScript in continuation-passing style.)

That's the implementation of call/cc.

For how to use call/cc, I recommend my other article on continuations:

I found this link before posting the question but I still can't imagine how to use javascript call/cc implementation from your article (on the other hand I think I know how to use call/cc in scheme). Maybe I am too tired today.

If you posted a simple example of JavaScript written in continuation-passing style and using this call/cc implementation probably everything would be clear.
