Acivate command button by clicking another command button

Charlix · Mar 24, 2004

Could anyone tell me how to activate a given command-button by clicking another one on an ASP page.

I tried the following three snippets without success.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">
Sub Command1_onClick()
Command2.onClick = True
End Sub
</Script>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">
Sub Command1_onClick()
Command2.value = True
End Sub
</Script>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">
Sub Command1_onClick()
Command2.onClick
End Sub
</Script>

Thanks

I guess it will be easier to write a function in JavaScript that will activate or deactivate a button, or show or hide it. Then you call the function in onClick event written for the first submit button.

Thanks Ankor,
That's what I'm trying to do, is to write a function in VBScript that will activate the command2 button to process some code when command1 is clicked.

I just don't seem to be able to do it.

How about Command2.enabled = True ?
Or it my be the other way, can never remember: Command2.disabled = false

you could try this:

Code:

<html>
	<script language="javascript">
	function check()
	{
		var currId = div1.id;
		document.getElementById(currId).style.visibility= "visible";
		alert(document.getElementById(currId).style.visibility);
	}
	</script>
	<body >
		<form method="post" name="test">
			<br><br>
			<input type=button onclick="check();" value="command1">
			<br><br>
			<div id="div1" style="visibility:hidden;">
			<input value="Command2" type=button ID="Button1" NAME="Button1">
			</div>
		</form>
		
	</body>
</html>

Hope this helps.

It's always in the details.
