Is there a compiler or runtime library necessary to code vbscript, or
can you just code it and run it. I guess I'm asking if it's an
interpreted language.

Thanks

Client side vbscript requires IE to run -- so it's probably not the best
thing to use. I would definitely suggest javascript for any client side
scripts you might want to write unless you are on an intranet where
you know what the users are going to use to look at the pages --

Server side vbscript (aka ASP) requires an NT/win2K server (or a
win98 machine with PWS installed) to operate...

All required dll's (unless you want to use custom components) and
other such nonsense come installed so you can run the scripts.

hope it helped!

You need Windows Scripting Host (WSH)

You can get it here:
