asp_databases thread: sYntax error


Message #1 by "Matthew Lohr" <mlohr@t...> on Tue, 25 Apr 2000 03:15:22 -0700
Awhile back I asked a question about this syntax error I was getting.  I

thought it was unique to one machine viewing the web page but now I see it

is not.  I keep getting the following syntax error everytime I run my

script.  I was looking at an example from www.asptoday.com and just never

got it to work right.  I am not sure if the problem is in my database or

something i did not understand in the script.  If anyone knows of a problem

with the following line could you please help?









  var alen    = eval(strArray + ".length")

If the provider does not support a particular cursor, then it will supply a

substitute cursor.



There is no problem using recordset object to add a new record to a table,

though it's slower than just executing an SQL statement against a connection

object.

Matthew, Could you post a link to the code sample that isn't working.  I'm 

curious to see what this is.



Thanks,

Your problem is a client-side javascript error...nothing to do with the

database.



Netscape Javascript console reports: ".length Syntax Error"

I fixed I must have typed something wrong when entering my code the first

time.  I started over from scratch and it works now.  Thanks

That's because there is a syntax error in your javascript. I merely noted

what the Netscape Console spewed out, as an aid to helping you solve your

problem.



In Netscape v4, whenever a javascript error is encountered in a page, you

can type:



 javascript:



in the address bar, and a console will open and point out the errors, what

lines they occured on, and point out where in the line the error(s)

occurred.
