Getting array from Server side to client side?

[MNClimber]

Is there a way I can get a 2-d array from server side ASP code to the cient side VBScript code??

TIA

Mike

Use ASP code to write VBScript code on the page. The VBScript code should be done in such a way that it will load the array client side. Remember, the ASP code will execute on the server, create the VBScript, send it to the client and then the client will execute the VBScript.

Anyone else??

Try this :

<%
my_prog = Request(&quot;prog&quot;)
%>
<script language=&quot;VBScript&quot;>
<!--
  function launch()
    set shell = createObject(&quot;wscript.shell&quot;)
    prog = &quot;<%= my_prog %>&quot;
    shell.run (prog)
  end function
//-->
</script>

<a href=&quot;VBScript:launch()&quot;>Launch application</a>

The only real way you can do it is to write it out into a client-side scripting language array (such as JavaScript or VBScript). Basically like so:

<script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
<% for j = 1 to 5 %>
jsarray(<%=j%>) = &quot;<%=asparray(j)%>&quot;;
<% next %>
</script>

When it prints out it will look like so:

<script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
jsarray(1) = &quot;a&quot;;
jsarray(2) = &quot;b&quot;;
jsarray(3) = &quot;c&quot;;
jsarray(4) = &quot;d&quot;;
jsarray(5) = &quot;e&quot;;
</script>

Otherwise you can't pass complex objects like arrays like you would normal simple variables.
