Hi Duane,
Why do you say <% if x = 1 then call mysubroutine(24) %> is not allowed?
I've been using it for years! :-)
You can use the if statement exactly as you would in VB, or most other
languages. So:-
Sub WriteDouble(intInput)
Dim sTemp
sTemp = "The double of " & intInput & " is " & (intInput * 2)
response.write sTemp
End function
If x = 1 then
Call WriteDouble(5)
Elseif x = 2 then
Call WriteDouble(10)
Else
Call WriteDouble(20)
End if
Dan

Subject: [AspClassicAnyQuestionIsOk] Re: A simple question: branching
based on IF statement
Thank you Charles for your response.
I did not know about the learnasp.com site and thanks for turning me
on to it. Perhaps it was right in front of me, but I did not see any
examples of subroutines being called from an IF statement.
I believe it is illegal to do a CALL to subroutine from an IF
statement. i.e. <% if x = 1 then call mysubroutine(24) %>
The above example is is not allowed.
It looks like IF statements are limited to variable manipulations and
response.write etc functions, but not to branching to functions or
subs.
If there is an example of this in the learnasp.com site, I would love
to see it.
Thanks again,
Duane
