Running VB Script in a web page

mattcottrell · Mar 20, 2003

I am trying to create a html page which has a button on it which logs off the user.

The script works fine when I do it in VB6 but all I get is the message box when it is in the html page.

are there any limitations to what scripting you can use in html.

Here is the html script:

<HTML>
<HEAD>

<SCRIPT TYPE="text/VBScript">

Declare Function ExitWindowsEx& Lib "user32" (ByVal uFlags As Long, ByVal dwReserved As Long)
Public Const EWX_FORCE = 4
Public Const EWX_LOGOFF = 0
Public Const EWX_REBOOT = 2
Public Const EWX_SHUTDOWN = 1

</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>

<BODY>
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/VBScript">
Sub Button1_OnClick

MsgBox "This will log you off"
Call ExitWindowsEx(EWX_LOGOFF, 0)
Unload Me
End Sub
</SCRIPT>

<H3>Log off test Page</H3><HR>

<FORM><INPUT NAME="Button1" TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Log Off"></FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Many thanks in advance

Huge difference between VBScript (client side browser processing script) and Visual Basic (application, access to OS api's)

You need to pick up a book on vbscript, or go to:
