Javascript array to vb arrayHey guys, I've searched high and low for a way to populate a vb array with
data from a javascript array. I can find 50 ways to do it with ASP but not one for VB. I appreciate what help you can give. -- -John Please rate when your question is answered to help us and others know what is helpful. What? You want to write a VB .NET program that has JavaScript in the VB?
You can do it with ASP but not VB? What does that mean? ASP is an architecture, not a language. If you did what you want in an ASP page, then you wrote it in, most likely VBScript. Can you post that code so we can understand what it is you are trying to do?

I am automating a batch download of files from a web page. The url's of the
downloads are built from a combination of values stored in arrays on the site. I have a windows application program built that navigates to the site, does some preliminary stuff, and now needs to download the files needed to complete the process. I have all the code for navigation and even the downloader built, just need this last piece. This is an example of the issue posted elsewhere. http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread91300.html -- Show quote-John Please rate when your question is answered to help us and others know what is helpful.

It's not just a conversion
between JavaScript and VB .NET. It's the persistence of the client side JavaScript object into the server-side processing of ASP .NET. You'll first need to find a way to send the JavaScript array data (not the array) to the server for the server-side code to extract. The most straight-forward way would probably be hidden form fields and an automated form submit function in the client-side code.

There are two javascript functions, one
that selects the rows and one that retrieves them, I have some code that can run a javascript function but nothing along the lines of passing parameters. Any ideas for that? -- Show quote-John Please rate when your question is answered to help us and others know what is helpful. "Scott M." wrote: > Your problem is more complex than you think.

gathers the array data and sends it to the server (via a form submit, perhaps). I imagine the function would iterate over your array and add hidden form fields to the DOM, then when done submit the form. The server-side code would then just pull these submitted form values out of the Request object as normal.
