here is my sub:
<%
sub onclick_gameson()

Dim filename, fs, f
filename = "flag.txt"
Set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"
set f=fs.OpenTextFile(Server.MapPath("Documents/flag.txt", 2, True)
f.write("1"
f.close
Set f=nothing
Set fs=nothing

end sub
%>

and here is how im calling it:
<FORM>
<TABLE BORDER CELLPADDING=3>
<TR>
<TD><INPUT TYPE=BUTTON OnClick="gameson()" VALUE="Games On!"></TD>
<TD><INPUT TYPE=BUTTON OnClick="gamesoff()" VALUE="Games Cancelled!"></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</FORM>

basically what i need is a button that can be clicked so that the sub will be run
if anyone can help me please!!!
thank you in advance!!

HI Mike

I am not an expert in IT but as far as my knowledge goes what u re trying to do here is call an asp (server side) procedure on click of a button.

I think what you can do here is write the code of sub on an another page , name it as gameson.asp and submit you button page to this new page and after teh processing just redirect it back to same page containing the buttons.

That way you can display whatever results you wana display.

Thanks

thanks alot!!! works great!!

My pleasure
