Problems of executing JScript

[cphan]

I've tried to run the following script in Sable but it did not work. I've got the error message "One of the commands on the button failed to execute. XCommand: Execute Script:JScript.test()". Would you please help me solve this problem? Thanks!

Code: Select all

function test()
{
    var rangeCount = GetNumberOfSubscriptRanges();
	for (var i=0;i<rangeCount;i++){
		var name = GetSubscriptRangeName(i);
		name = name.replace(/"/g,'\'');
		var elementCount = GetNumberOfSubscriptElements(name);
		for(var j = 0;j<elementCount;j++){
			var elementName = GetSubscriptElement(name,j);
			elementName = elementName.replace(/"/g,'\'');
		}
	}
}

The following does not look right

Code: Select all

name = name.replace(/"/g,'\'');

Shouldn't it be something like

Code: Select all

name = name.replace("g","a'');

According to the manual of Microsoft Jscript (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... 90%29.aspx), name.replace(/"/g,'\''); replaces " by ', am i wrong?
By the way, i remove 2 lines with "replace" methods, it does not work either.

The function works fine. But you don't return any value from it, so Sable assumes it must have failed. Try the following.

Code: Select all

function test()
{
	var rangeCount = GetNumberOfSubscriptRanges();
	for (var i=0;i<rangeCount;i++)
	{
		var name = GetSubscriptRangeName(i);
		name = name.replace(/"/g,'\'');
		var elementCount = GetNumberOfSubscriptElements(name);
		for(var j = 0;j<elementCount;j++)
		{
			var elementName = GetSubscriptElement(name,j);
			elementName = elementName.replace(/"/g,'\'');
		}
	}
	return 1;
}

It works like a charm in Sable Developer!
However, it does not work with Sable Runtime, i have the error
"Error: Microsoft JScript runtime error
Error executing : x= test()
Reason: expected object
Text:
Line:3"

Thanks a lot for your help!

In Runtime, are you opening a SPK or the VNP file?

[cphan]

Neither of them works.

Can you send me the script file? The code works fine for me.

This is my project. Thanks for your help!

What happens for you in Runtime? I click the button and the code executes correctly. The function you've written doesn't do anything that would show on the screen.

I reinstall Sable, it works now. Thanks again for your help!
