Passing Multiple Arguments to Function

Yesuslave · Aug 11, 2004

Hi all,

Not sure why this code doesn't work, but when I set up multiple arguments in a VBScript Function, it ceases to work. I've tested both arguments individually, and they work find. When in conjunction, though, I get no response. Thanks for the help before hand!

This should work:

Code:

<html>
<body>
<script type="text/vbscript">


Sub GetStuf(strFreq, strOrig)
msgbox strFreq
msgbox strOrig
end Sub



</script>
<H1 align="center">Report Lookup Tool</H1>
Please select the type of report you would like to look up from the drop down menu below.<br><br><br><br>
<form ID=Form1>
Frequency: 
<select name="Freq" ID=Select1>
<option value="Daily">Daily
<option value="Weekly">Weekly
<option value="Bi-Weekly">Bi-Weekly
<option value="Monthly">Monthly
<option value="Other (See Notes)">Other (See Notes)
<option value = "All">All
</select><br>
Originator:
<select name="Orig" ID=Select2>
<option value="Amy Williams">N1
<option value="Chris Kerney">N2
<option value="Elizabeth Shoener">N3
<option value="Joshua Wise">N4
<option value="Marge McBride">N5
<option value="Natalie Gerstenbacher">N6
<option value="All">All
</select>
<br>
<input type="button" value="Get List" onclick="GetStuf[red Select1.value,Select2.value[/red]" ID=Button1>
</form>

</body>

Hmmm...that doesn't seem to work. What is the whole [red]...[/red] thing about? as well, there is no closing bracket on the first "red", is that supposed to be that way? I tried it with a closing bracket and without, and neither works.

Thanks,
Joshua

Hey, Ok, I'm dumb...lol...

the things you put as [ red ] and [ /red ] appeared in the html, but when I viewed them in my reply, they didn't...so I just took them out of your code, and viola! It works! Thanks very much!

Yep...just sloppy typing on my part.
