how does one rig it so that when i make a field, the user types in lets say DotA, then it would redirect him to a page? im no real expert on HTML VBScript but here goes. [code]Sub i dunno which
If Field = DotA Then
Redirect somewhere
ElseIf Field = Warcraft Then
Redirect Elsewhere
Else
Redirect Elsewhere too.[/code] so how would i do this?

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="X;Y">

X = delay in seconds
Y = URL

IE:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5;http://www.google.com/search?q=DotA">

[edit]
That's HTML, btw, so you'd use Document.Write (I guess).

I am assuming this is for asp classic and this is not a client side implementation of vbscript.

[code]
<form action="takeme.asp" method="post">
<input type="text" name="pagename" size="20">
<input type="submit" value="submit">
</form>
<%
dim pagename
pagename=request.form("pagename")
if pagename<>"" then
      response.redirect(pagename)
end If
%>
[/code]
name this file takeme.asp and then type http://google.com into your input and wahlah you are there.

ummm cant i put in a code similar to this in a .html file?

yes... except that client side vbscript is not well supported. You should not use javascript for functional scripting, that is with 10% of the internet not supporting it. Do you know the numbers for client side vbscript? I would be willing to bet that far more than 10% of the internet does not support it. It makes no sense for anyone to use client side vbscript. That is why I figured you wanted the server side implementation.

...

i just want to put an almost blank page on the home of my website and it would have text saying Choose your Destination. then there would be a field below saying where to go to. and thats where i need VBScript cause i saw a site that had this ability with VBScript. i dunno how to do it in HTML cause i dunno the functions for VBScript in HTML. for Stealthbot those are easy.

[/quote] The best option would be server side, like I posted above. If you want to do it client side you should do it with javascript, the support would be better. But like I said, if this is going to be something important it must be done server side, otherwise your site will fail for a certain % of your users.

You want a dropdown, or a textfield?


Also...I thought you were a "VBScript/HTML" expert? :)

Don't bother using VBScript. It's old, outdated, and unsupported, even when used server-side.

ummmmmmmm no. quasi = WRONG. if the If statement is one line only, there is no need for End If. ask JoeTheOdd if you dont believe me. also i know i didnt end the function. i was in a hurry at the time.

No, that's incorrect.  Visual Basic requires an End If statement because it doesn't know the difference between a one-line and multi-line "If" block because it has no cue for a start of the block, as C-based languages do.  Consider the following two snippets of code:

[code]
' code snippet 1
If user = Nothing Then
    nullUsers = nullUsers + 1
End If

MsgBox "Number of null users: " & nullUsers

'code snippet 2
If user = Nothing Then
  nullUsers = nullUsers + 1
MsgBox "Number of null users: " & nullUsers
[/code]

The first would compile (or execute).  The second would not.  Why?  The second doesn't know if the MsgBox statement belongs to the If user = Nothing clause block or not.  If it does, then there should be an End If according to your logic.  If it does not belong, then they work correctly.  But in the former case, where does the End If statement go?  Does it go before MsgBox, which would make the code snippets behave the same?  Or does it go *after* MsgBox, which would make the code snippets behave differently (the message box would only display if user = Nothing in the second snippet).

This is different than C-based languages.  Consider this:
[code]
// snippet 1
if (user == NULL)
  nullUsers ++;
cout << "Number of null users: " << nullUsers << std::endl;

// snippet 2
if (user == NULL)
{
  nullUsers ++;
  cout << "Number of null users: " << nullUsers << std::endl;
}
[/code]
The opening bracket gives the compiler the clue that it needs to determine if the if statement is a single-statement or multi-statement block.

Actually, one-line "If" statements can all be on one line. At least they could last time I checked.

See the following:

[code]
If user = Nothing Then nullUsers = nullUsers + 1
[/code]

As others have said, Visual Basic supports one-line "If" statements just fine. What you may also want to know is that Visual Basic is even more powerful than C++:  You can have multiple statements in a one-line "If"!

[code]
'code snippet 3
If user = Nothing Then nullUsers = nullUsers + 1
MsgBox "Number of null users: " & nullUsers
[/code]

and then:

[code]
'code snippet 4
If user = Nothing Then nullUsers = nullUsers + 1: MsgBox "Found another null user!"
MsgBox "Number of null users: " & nullUsers
[/code]

Oh LoL -- here it never occurred to me that you can just avoid a line break.  :P

Can you do single line if statements in vb.net?

There are no "functions of HTML". Perhaps you're looking for a) DOM API b) ASP API c) ASP.NET API
