    OnClick Question

    I have the below code. I am trying to send information to a subroutine, I
    am getting an Object Required Error.

    <input type="button" name="pSearch" value="Search"
    onclick="Displa yRecords()">

    Then in my ASP page I have this

    Sub DisplayRecords( )

    dim conn
    dim strsql
    dim mycount

    ....
    ....

    End Sub

    I think I am doing this correctly.

      Re: OnClick Question

      You seem to be confusing a client side event (onClick) with server side
      script.

          the event is CLIENT side, your code is SERVER side, they can't interact.
          You'll have to post to the server and process from there.

              Hmmm, thanks didn't realize that. Is there any another way I can have a
              user click on a button and run a sub routine or do I have to pass the value
              to another page?.

                  It can be the same page, different page, different server, different site -
                  it doesn't matter. But, regardless, you'll have to hit a server again.
                  Example:


                  <%
                  If Request.Queryst ring("x") = "1" Then
                  Response.Write "Okay, NOW the code in here will run..."
                  '''code, code, code
                  End If
                  %>


                  <button onclick="locati on.href+='?x=1' ">Run a sub</button>


                  See, instead of calling a sub from your button, you call the page again, but
                  pass something in the querystring that can tell your SERVER-side code that
                  it should do something. Does that make sense at all?
