Problem with splice method of Array object

Sashko · May 26, 2002

Hi,
I have the next script
<html>
<body>
<%
if(Request.Form("btnsubmit&quot

!="press&quot

{
var arr1=new Array();
arr1[0]="9821";
arr1[1]=1;
arr1[2]="98211";
arr1[3]=121;
Session("somekey&quot

=arr1;
}
else{
Response.Write("test:&quot

;
var arr2=Session("somekey&quot

;
arr2.splice(1,1);
Response.Write(arr2.toString());
}
%>
<form name="test" method="post" action="<%=Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME&quot

%>">
<input type="submit" name="btnsubmit" value="press">
</form>
</body>
<html>
When ASP trys top execute the string
arr2.splice(1,1);
the script falls down and returns the error like this"(0x8000FFFF)Catastrophic failure"
I just cannot understand what is the problem
May be it's a Microsoft bug or what?

i may be way off here but is session("somekey&quot

definetely got a value? I see you are setting it inthe first half of your logic but presuming this hasnt been done before then the variable would be empty or may not contain an array type. Both of these situations would explain the error.

hope this helps

One more interesting thing : I can access property "length" and operator [] of that array, but don't have an access to any method.
