Um...JScript?
 
Anyone know JScript? Or some good tutorials for it?

And could anyone tell me just how much like JavaScript it truly is?

:)

sounds dodgy to me....

haha, yeah...

Dodgy is a good word for Microsoft in general, though

JScript is the Microsoft Javascript, basically they added alot of functions that don't follow standards and made it harder for other browsers to be compatible.

MonkeyRevolution Apr 25th, 2005 4:11 PM

aaaah

How very...like Microsoft.

So I guess that means that I won't find any information that I don't have to buy?

You will, but you don't want to learn it. Learn Javascript.

Someone needs to write a decent version of JavaScript. Something like Python, perhaps?

lol, I would, but unfortunately, I don't have a choice.

I have to work with JScript because InfoPath tells me to and, if I can at all help it, I would like to avoid coding a huge painful form by hand when I've spent so much time on this already.

Why are you using InfoPath? Come to think of it, what exactly is InfoPath? I have it installed, but AFAIK, it's just taking up space.

tempest Apr 25th, 2005 7:52 PM

Ok. Here's the thing. Javascript code works when read by a JScript reader, it just doesn't work the other way around. So again, use Javascript, not JScript.

What is InfoPath?
