HTML newbie needing help with .asp

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jun 18.2010

Hello everybody,

I’m kind of teaching myself html as I code the webpages for my site. I want to embed an .asp call into my webpage, to show the quantity in stock of a particular item.

I’m coding something like the below:
where “?id=” refers to the product ID, and “switch=1” calls up the quantity on hand at my distributor.

<span style=”color: rgb(255, 0, 0);”><span

style=”font-size: large;”>
Stock:
<script>alert( &lt;%=
wwWebUtils.EncodeJsString(“http://www.mydistributor_api.asp?id=8731&amp;switch=1”)
%&gt; );</script></span></span><br>

It doesn’t seem to work though! I’m new to coding web pages, any help anyone has would be appreciated!!!

Bill

@billbo1970authorJun 18.2010 — minor correction, had an editor error in part of my script there:

<script>alert( <%=

wwWebUtils.EncodeJsString("http://www.mydistributor_api.asp?id=8731&amp;switch=1")

%>; );</script>

@billbo1970authorJun 18.2010 — Thanks for the response CF. I've posted it there, but that forum doesn't quite seem to fit. It's a client side issue, not server. If I put my query directly into a browser, it does return results. I just can't get those results to embed in my page, next to "Stock: " ?

Success!
