Please help.

I am quite new to ASP and VBScript. I'm having difficulty in passing a variable to a procedure.

I have

<input type=&quot;button&quot; value=&quot;Run&quot; onclick=&quot;call GetReportParam(<%=Session(&quot;SelRpt&quot;)%>)&quot; >

where Session(&quot;SelRpt&quot;) = Request.ServerVariables(&quot;QUERY_STRING&quot;)

I am able to do a response.write for Session(&quot;SelRpt&quot;) .

But when I use it in the onclick even above, it returns a false.

Please help.

Thanks.
 
Are you trying to call a procedure in your asp code from the browser, or to call a client procedure (in JavaScript, for an example)?
The ASP code is running on the server before sending the results to the browser client, and it's basically not possible to call it from the client.
 
Hey there,

Try putting single quotes around the Session value.. That should help..

<input type=&quot;button&quot; value=&quot;Run&quot; onclick=&quot;call GetReportParam([red]'[/red]<%=Session(&quot;SelRpt&quot;)%>[red]'[/red])&quot; >


Hope this fixes your problem.

Cheers,

G.
