When I create a single character string
var str = "A"
'convert to ascii
num = asc(str)
Response.Write num ' 65 shows up
'when I have a whole string
str = "hello"
str = mid(str, 1, 1) ' return 'h'
num = asc(str)
'I get an error:
Invalid procedure call or argument:'asc'What can be done to fix this?

I want to use the instr function, but return results from it depending on surtain functions, I can't realy explain so I'll show my example:
I have a string in wich some word I want to find might be in diffrent Capital Letters order, I want the Instr function to return all the values of the place of that word (avcourse I'll run a for and increase the starting point of the Instr func until it returns 0). The instinct thought is to use the Lcase or the Ucase functions, but in this case I don't know how to use them. In the same Idea I wanted to use the Instr Func with the trim Func, But Its realy the same principle if I just understood how to do so.
I am trying to call a function in asp to check to see if a varibale has a value stored in it if there is nothing wite the value NA into it. My code is

Name = (NullValues(Name))
email = (NullValues(email))
response.Write AccountNo & "<br>"
response.Write Name & "<br>"
response.Write email & "<br>"
%>

Function ShowXML(strXML,strStyleSheet)
Set objXML = CreateObject("MSXML.DOMDocument")

View Replies View RelatedI know the basic difference between a subroutine and a function is a
subroutine performs a task and a function performs a task and returns a
value. The Call keyword is required when using parens with subs with more
than 1 parameters. Parens around values passed are ByVal vs ByRef and is a
waste of processing if passed ByRef for no reason.
I am told there is no reason to ever use a subroutine as a function can be
used even if it doesn't return a value. While this appears to be true, is
there any reason why it's ever a bad idea to use a function, instead of a
subroutine, that doesn't return a value? Are there memory, performance,
etc. issues?
I am trying to locate information on how to call a sub within VBScript on an
ASP page but I can't locate generic information. What I want to do is
generate a page that will stay up but the information on it will change
based on a series of drop down boxes. I need the first drop down box to call
a second dropped down box based on the state that is chosen then city and so
on.

I’m trying to do something that I remember as very simple I'm trying to check that the value of a form text box is numerical using the isNaN function. The code I am using is:
<%
quantity = Request.Form("number1")
if isNaN(quantity) = true then
Response.Write "Your input was not a number"
else
Response.Write "Your input was a number"
end if
%>
All I get is a NaN type mismatch error.
Is there a function to check to see if a string contains a space
Thanks

What would be the end result of test?Would it be 0000012345 or 1234500000 or 12345?
