If you are not trying to access the scripts directly in the ASP file, it should work just fine. What does the error say?

Possible the relative path is incorrect to the js file? Maybe not enough "../" or to many? Try placing the exact path for the source and see it works.

On the other hand, if you are needing the ASP script to access the function contained in the js file then you can not do that in that way. The the ASP will be processed first and then the HTML.

As long as you're processing as JS and not VBS you can include the file like this:



Then the ASP script would have access to that file as long as the above line is placed before the calling procedures.

Let me know if this does not answer your question.

At a quick glance, this might be the problem.

On line 22 you have:
<script language="JavaScript" src="../js/defaulr.js"></script>

default is misspelled. It should read:
<script language="JavaScript" src="../js/default.js"></script>

See if that change works. I'm having issues with my server right
now so I can't load up the asp page right now to test. If that
doesn't work, I'll look a little more.

Another Issue/Possibility
I may be wrong, but I don't think you can use the ASP in your JS
file the way you are trying to in the CreateMail function
because the server doesn't know to process the ASP script in the
JS file. I think you'll have to pass the UserName value as a
parameter to CreateMail instead. It's a rather simple change -

You can write the initial HTML line read:

Code:

<a href="javascript:createMail(<% =session("UserName") %>);">

And just change the js function to read:

Code:

function createMail(sUserName) { window.open("new_message.asp?un=" + sUserName + "&page="+document.main.location,"Messeges", "height=270, width=520, toolbar=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=no, resizable=no, location=no, directories=no, status=yes"); }
