I have been looking at this to long. Must be something simple I am doing wrong. Can anyone tell me why this is not returning a value.


BillStatus = SetStatus()


<%
'----------------------------- FUNCTION TO SET STATUS ACCORDING TO DATE ----------------------------------
Function SetStatus()

IF Date > "1/1/2004" AND Date < "4/1/2004" Then
BillStatus = "H"
else
BillStatus = "N"
End if

End Function
%>

I know it calls the function because if I do a response.write BillStatus it will show output something.

Thanks in advance

Do you feel lucky?


 
Is the function call server-side? You can't call a server-side function from the client-side.

TYPO!!!

Code:
Function SetStatus()

    IF Date > "1/1/2004" AND Date < "4/1/2004" Then
        [b]SetStatus[/b] = "H"
    else
        [b]SetStatus[/b] = "N"
    End if

End Function
