JavaScript - Javascript - execScript command

Asked By Murugan V on 24-Nov-08 07:06 AM
Hello,
we are executing the vbscript code thru javascript using execScript.
Example:
 execScript("n=MsgBox('Do you wish to delete?','4132','Confirmation Message')","vbscript");

The above command executing the script properly, but i do not want title message like "vbscript: Confirmation Message". I would like to hide the word "vbscript".
Is there any possibilities to hide?

please let me know, if anyone knows.

Thanks in Advance,
Murugan.V

use simply this

win.execScript("alert('Do you wish to delete?')", "javascript");

Buttons

I do not want the "Ok" & "Cancel" button in the alert message. My user wants "Yes" & "No" buttons in the message box. That is the reason,i'm using the vbscript instead of javascript.

fake the VBScript MsgBox with Javascript

Rather than use the execScript method that works only in IE, I suggest that you create a pop window using window.open() to fake the VBScript MsgBox functionality. As you can control the child window features, you can remove scrollbar, addressbar etc, to create a custom alert box.

//Check this, a code posted by another expert in this forum
<script language="JavaScript">
     function alertBox(alertMessage,height,width)
          {
          // This stuff centers the window
          windowWidth = (width == null) ? 200 : width; // width of the new window
         windowHeight = (height == null) ? 30 : height; // height of the new window
         windowLeft = (screen.width / 2) - (windowWidth / 2); // center the window right to left
         windowTop = (screen.height / 2) - (windowHeight / 2); // center the window top to bottom
         
          // the values get inserted into the features parameter of the window.open command...
          var windowLocation = "top=" + windowTop + ",left=" + windowLeft + ",height=" + windowHeight + ",width=" + windowWidth;
          alertWindow = window.open("","alertWindow",windowLocation);
          alertWindow.document.write("<html><head><title>Alert!</title></head><body bgcolor='#C0C0C0'>");
          alertWindow.document.write("<div align='center'>" + alertMessage + "<br>");
          alertWindow.document.write("<form><input type='button' value=' YES ' onclick='window.close()' align='center'></form>");
          alertWindow.document.write("</div></body></html>");
          }
</script>


// Here is the call:
<input type="button" value="test" onclick="alertBox('This is an alert!!!')">

Hope this helps

Try setting window.event.returnValue.

function confirm()
retval = msgbox("Are you sure?", vbYesNo)
if retval = vbYes then
window.event.returnValue = true
else
window.event.returnValue = false
end if
end function

<asp:button id="btnCancel" Text="Cancel" Runat="server"></asp:button>

btnCancel.Attributes.Add("oncl*ick", "vbscript: confirm()");

Hope this helps.

I do not want the "Ok" & "Cancel" button in the Confirm message. My user wants "Yes" & "No" buttons in the Confirm message box.
