Question

I’m getting “Object Error” on line

function readWURecord()
{
var ifUSD = "";
try
{var mtcnNo=document.getElementById('ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_TxtReferenceNo').value;
if(mtcnNo=='')
{
alert('Provide Reference Number');return false;}
var adoConn=new ActiveXObject("ADODB.Connection");
var adoRS=new ActiveXObject("ADODB.Recordset");
var filename;
var filenamecsv1;
fs=new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
filename=document.getElementById('ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_hdPath').value+'Trans.mdb';
filenamecsv1="D://Data.csv";
if(fs.FileExists(filename)==true)
{
adoConn.Open("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source="+filename+";Persist                                         Security Info=True;Jet OLEDB:Database Password=tradb897");
}
else if(fs1.FileExists(filenamecsv1)==true)
{
PageMethods.GetCurrentTime(document.getElementById("<%=TxtReferenceNo.ClientID%>").value);

and

function OnSuccess(response, userContext, methodName)
{
alert("response");
}

Can anybody help me what issues are with PageMethods.GetCurrentTime method?

Answer 1

First do add some whitspace (indentation) in your code. Secondly “<%=TxtReferenceNo.ClientID%>” will not get resolved if you do not generate a file. And if you have “.js” file then it is static (unless you somehow set it up not to be static).

So you should either set some variable outside of JS (e.g. in your ASP file) and use it in your function or call readWURecord with ClientID parameter or something. Or even better – don’t do it in JScript – ActiveX only works in Internet Explorer.
