jscript, ?Passing arrays from Server script to Client Script

?Passing arrays from Server script to Client Script

Author	Message
Gary Fric #1 / 6	?Passing arrays from Server script to Client Script Why is it that I can pass single variables from Server script to Client script, but I can't pass arrays? Is special way of handling this requirement? I have a Session object that contains an array that was initialized prior to coming into the new page. From this new page I want to have access to this Session Object (containing the array) available to the client script. Depending upon input from the user, I want to make certain values available to display from this array. Thanks, Gary

Aaron Bertrand [MVP #2 / 6	?Passing arrays from Server script to Client Script <script> var myArray = new Array(); <% for i = 0 to ubound(serverArray) %> myArray(<%=i%>) = "<%=serverArray(i)%>"; <% next %> numElements = <%=ubound(serverArray)%> </script> Of course if your array is made up of integers you don't use the quotes. ______ ab/mvp Quote: >Why is it that I can pass single variables from Server script to Client >script, but I can't pass arrays?

Gary Fric #4 / 6	?Passing arrays from Server script to Client Script Aaron, The solution did not work. Here is my version, which is in JavaScript. <%SrvrBalArray = Session("Balances");%> var localBalArray = new Array(); <% for (i = 0; i < SrvrBalArray.length; i++) {%> localBalArray(<%=i%>) = <%=SrvrBalArray[i]%>; <% } %> numElements = localBalArray.length; </script>

Unless it's because of the typo I had here, it may have caused your problem: Quote: >localBalArray(<%=i%>) = <%=SrvrBalArray[i]%>; Should be brackets instead of parentheses: localBalArray[<%=i%>] = <%=SrvrBalArray[i]%>; My mind is fluent in VBScript but only conversational in JScript. :) ______ ab/mvp

Gary Fric #6 / 6	?Passing arrays from Server script to Client Script Aaron, As it turns out, I put the test script in a page that had not yet caused the Session object (server array) to be initialized. Thanks again, Gary
