4.0 VBSCRIPT BASICS


VBScript is a powerful and easy to learn tool that can be used to add interaction to
your Web pages.

The Web browser receives scripts along with the rest of the Web document. The
browser parses and processes the scripts. HTML was extended to include a tag that is
used to incorporate scripts into HTML-the <SCRIPT> tag.

4.1 INCORPORATING VBSCRIPT INTO HTML PAGE


To add scripts into your Web pages <SCRIPT> tag is used. The <SCRIPT> tag
signifies the start of the script section, while </SCRIPT> marks the end. An example
of this is shown below:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Working With VBScript</TITLE>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">
<!--
MsgBox "Welcome to my Web page!"
-->
</SCRIPT>

The LANGUAGE attribute of SCRIPT tag specifies the language used for scripting.
Scripts are usually placed at the top of the Web document, in the HEAD. There are
four different places where you can use scripts:

• In the body of the page. In this case, the output of the script is displayed, as part
of the HTML document, when the browser loads the page.
• In the header of the page, between the <HEAD> tags. Scripts in the header
aren’t executed immediately, but can be referred to by other scripts. The header
is often used for functions-groups of VBScript statements that can be used as a
group.
• Within an HTML tag. This is called an event handler and allows the script to
work with HTML elements. Event handlers are the one type of script where you
don’t need to use the <SCRIPT> tag.
• In a separate file entirely.

Not all browsers support scripting languages. To handle such browsers you can
enclose your script in comment tags (<!-- and -->).
