I call a Sub on UnLoad but my Public Variable above is reset?

wmd3 · Jan 22, 2002

Example:

<%

Dim bln

bln = False

Sub Process()
bln = True
End Sub

Sub DoOnUnload()
If bln = True Then
'This is never hit.
End If
End Sub

%>

<html>
<body OnUnload="<%DoOnUnload%>">
Process
</body>
</html>

I am new to VBScript, and if I am missing something I would like to try to understand it.

Where did you execute SUB PROCESS.

Sorry,

I execute it when someone presses a button on my form and then I move on to the next page (triggering the OnUnload).

But, they can also press a different button that doesn't execute Process and continue to the next page.

I have done some more investigating and discoved that the OnUnload is running before the Sub Process I am calling from an OnClick of a button.

-------------------------------
<%

Dim Accepted
Accepted = 0

Sub Process()
Dim cn
Accepted = 1
set cn = GetDatabaseConn()
cn.Execute "(Some SQL statement here.)"
cn.close
set cn = nothing
Response.Write "Call Window.Close()"
End Sub

Sub ClosePage()
Response.Write "Call Window.Close()"
End Sub

Sub PageUnload()
Dim cn
set cn = GetDatabaseConn()
cn.Execute "(SQL using my Variable here.)" & Accepted
cn.close
set cn = nothing
End Sub

%>

<html>

<body OnUnload='<%PageUnload%>'>

<form action="" method="post" name="frmProcess">
<input type="BUTTON" value="Accept" language="VBScript" onclick="<%Process%>">
<input type="BUTTON" value="Close" language="VBScript" onclick="<%ClosePage%>">

</form>

</body>
</html>

---------------------------
This is an example of what I am doing. Is there anything I can change to do it better or to get my desired results.
