Hi All !

This is my first post....I'm an absolute newbie but I know VB6.

I have looked around but cannot seem to find how to change the contents of a text/picture cell in a table upon an event, say a button being presssed or checkbox clicked, on in a HTML page using VBScript client-side.

Is this possible?......Is this obvious?......Is this easy?

Please Help !

Hi aztarac,

one link

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/author/dhtml/overview/dhtml_overviews_entry.asp

and a bit of code

<html>
  <head>
   <hta:application id = "writecell"
   />
   <title>display text on button click</title>
   <meta http-equiv = "content-script-type" content = "text/vbscript"/>
   <script language = "VBScript"
           type     = "text/vbscript"
   >
 '<![CDATA[
 
 ''= switch image in one and only image
 ' ============================================================================
 Sub switchImage()
   Dim oImg : Set oImg = document.getElementsByTagName( "img" )( 0 )
   If Instr( oImg.href, "blue" ) Then
      oImg.src = "red.bmp"
   Else
      oImg.src = "blue.bmp"
   End If
 End Sub
 
 ''= display sText in table cell tdDISPLAY
 ' ============================================================================
 Sub displayTD( sText )
   document.all( "tdDISPLAY" ).innerText = sText
 End Sub
 
 ''= does it on button click
 ' ============================================================================
 Sub doIt( oBtt )
   Dim sText
   sText = "You clicked " & oBtt.Id  & "/" & oBtt.Value & " just now: " & Now
   displayTD sText
   switchImage
 End Sub
 
 ''= refreshes the HTA page, which includes re-running any Windows_Onload code
 ' ============================================================================
 Sub reloadHTA()
   location.reload True
 End Sub
 
 ']]>
   </script>
  </head>
  <body>
   <form>
    <table border = "1">
     <tr>
      <td id = "tdDISPLAY">
       to be replaced
      </td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
      <td>
       <img src = "blue.bmp">
      </td>
     </tr>
     <tr>
      <td>
       <input type = "BUTTON" onclick = "doIt( Me )" id = "bttDoIt" value = "press">
      </td>
     </tr>
    </table>
    <hr />
    <input type = "BUTTON" value = "reload" onclick = "reloadHTA()">
   </form>
  </body>
 </html>

to get you started.

Good luck!

Hi aztarac,

according to

http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/events/onmouseover.asp

(HTML 4.0) - just add a handler to the TD element.
