View 4 RepliesThe user clicks on the delete icon, and gets a JavaScript client-side popup
to confirm that he wants to delete. I am passing this client-side function
a contactID.
Then, I want to send the result of this confirm (true|false) to a
server-side VBScript function, along with the contactID.
The VBScript function will then perform a delete in the database for the
specified contactID.
I have seen many examples about sending stuff back and forth between
JavaScript and VBScript, between server and client, but all the examples I
see are just popping up generic alerts and such. I need to execute some JS
on the client side, return a value, and send it to a VBScript function on
the server side.
I have some pages with this VBScript code, which obviously does not
work in Firefox. How can I convert this to Javascript in order for my
web page to work in Firefox ? It basically fills a drop down with a
list of dates that a user can select. Code:
I need some help converting this VBScript over to JavaScript so that the calculations will work properly in browsers other than IE.
You can take a look at Turn 2 Design Code: for a feel about what I'm trying to do, but basicly, I just need to calculate the cost of the selected items based on the selected quantity of that item.
The only thing I know about JavaScript is the small Pop-up scripts I've been able to litterally copy and paste to implement. So, please, dont just post code, post an explaination of whats going on and why so I can try to figure it out. Code:
Not sure whether this should go in the JavaScript or VBScript/ASP section, but I'll try here anyway.
I have an ASP include file that contains both VBScript and JavaScript code. The VBScript processes some information and has an onChange event which calls a JavaScript function. Within this javascript function I want to access a recordset and retrieve a value using a variable from the javascript. Here's the code from the JavaScript section. Code:
Just wondering if anyone knew if there was a definite speed advantage to VBScipt as opposed to JavaScript?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to return DATE ONLY for yesterday's date. No seconds,
milliseconds. Formatted either yyyy/mm/dd or mm/dd/yyyy. VB does it so
easily Date()-1 will return 03/27/2007 if today is 03/28/2007. Why so
many hoops for javascript? Any ideas?
I have the following function to get the total qty:
function calttl()
{
var ttlqty
ttlqty=0
for (i = 0; i <= document.qtymain.orderdetail.length-1; i++)
{
ttlqty = ttlqty + document.qtymain.qty.item(i).value
}
}
The problem I have is the document.qtymain.qty.item(i).value I get
look like a string, so the number I get for ttlqty is not add up the
number but concatenate.
How do I convert the value I get to a number in javascript?

I'm having a problem getting javascript and vbscript to place nicely together. Here is what I want to do:
I'm getting values from my database for different exam types. Here are some sample values:
Exam Type1
Exam Type2
Exam Type3
Here is how I get the values in vbscript: Code:
I got two ASP pages. One is ASP email form (I'm using Persist ASP
Email component). Another one has all file links in it. For example,
when user click Outlook course hyperlink. It will pop up another
window with outlook course PDF file. (All PDF files are already in the
server).
What I am trying to do is: When user click the "Add Email" hyperlink,
it will add that course name and filepath into ASP/VBScript Dictioanry
Object. After the user finish and click "Attach to email" button. All
the files will be attached in the email as an attachment.
Because I am not familar with VBScript. So, can Javascript add items
to ASP Dictionary Object?

I am wondering if there is any way to write a VBScript macro for IE,
just like the action that we can do in MS Excel (Tools -> Macro ->
Visual Basic Editor).
Also, I believe we can automate actions to IE pages using VBScript,
like when you right click a web page and choose "Export to Microsoft
Excel". But I have no idea how to get it.
Could you help me in this problem:

I'm getting the following error in IE on my Adobe Presenter file: Message: Type mismatch: 'SlideContent_DoFSCommand'
What could be causing the error? The presentation plays fine, just getting the error.
First of all, I'm sorry if I'm in the wrong group of discussion. I couldn't find discussion forum for vbscript. The problem I had is in vbscript coding.
The coding is as below:

Const adLockOptimistic = 3
Const adUseClient = 3
strDNSServer = WScript.Arguments(0)
strDomainName = WScript.Arguments(1)

I've made a script for an intraweb, where I use VBScript aswel. (It's IE only)I need that VBScript to get some data from excel files... but then again, this data is passed to javascript where I use it in scripts.Everything works fine like this, when I pass the VB variable (shiftVB) to a javascript variable addthisvar:
Code JavaScript:
var addthisvar = shiftVB;
function dothisnow(addthisvar){
[code]....
This example is much simplified as the original script.VBScript is making a value, passes this to Javascript, which puts that value into a div tag.Now, as you see in the VBScript, the value contains a call to a javascript function. It shows perfectly in HTML, but the call can't be made when clicking the link.Is it possible in VBscript to write dynamic hardcoded javascipt function that pass arguments?
Code:
<script type="text/vbscript">
Dim m
