Variable from aspx.vb to html

Question

User-1336605834 posted

Hi,

I have a aspx.vb page with a simple DB Query. The Result is stored in a string variable.

I´m able to Show the value in a textarea in my aspx page but i like to use the variable in a separate html page and in a separate .js page.

How can I do this?

thx

For a separate aspx page  you can use a session value

session("myValue") = myVariable

i like to use the variable in a separate html page

for a HTML page you would need to write something to bring the value in via query string and process it via javascript maybe... or open the html file in a stream writer and write the value into the html directly.. (This is a lot of work for transferring a value to raw HTML page... probably not what you want)

and in a separate .js page.

If you are wanting to use it in javascript then just assign the value to a hidden field control and access it in javascript by pulling value from the hidden control

There's no such thing as a .js page. Also, HTML doesn't support "variables". What you could do is use AJAX (jQuery is easiest) to get the value from your database for display in an HTML file:  http://www.mikesdotnetting.com/article/104/many-ways-to-communicate-with-your-database-using-jquery-ajax-and-asp-net
