MsgBox error

[david7777777777]

When I try to get a message box to show up when a button is clicked on my ASP page,

Sub btnUpdate_onclick()
rsEditEmployees.updateRecord
msgbox "Record was successfully updated.", vbYesNoCancel
End Sub

my trace shows this error:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046'

Permission denied: 'msgbox'

/edit_employees.asp, line 27

Any clues as to where to look to fix this?

The code is being executed on the server. Not much point in a message box showing there!

Either set a variable (or a lable value), which you can use in the page with <%=m_strMessage%>

or trap the onclick BEFORE it is sent to the server using the thisPage_onbeforeserverevent.
