The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

syntax error on the F of "Function" when trying to define a function in an include file for ASP

Asked by bkhendershot in Active Server Pages (ASP)

Tags: compilation, function, microsoft

Hello,
   I am modifying parts of an e-commerce suite my company has purchased.  In doing so, I've been using include files so i do not directly have to change their code a lot.  I found that in several of my pages used the same lines of logic repeatedly... So, I took them out and created another .inc file and made functions of them.. included them in one main page with an html #include file call.  They worked great, so I know the functions are good.  

The problem came on some other pages.. I began getting this error :

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03ea'

Syntax error

C:\WEB\EMACOLA\WEBVIEWS\WEBORDER\../EViewMods/wo_DisplaySelectedItemsMOD113.inc, line 36

Function CheckStock(LamItem, qtyRequested, returnType)  with the little arrow under the F.

Oddly enough if I removed the <% %> from my include file, these error pages worked... However the first page no longer worked b/c it didnt' know to use ASP and instead just printed out my functions.

So, I no longer included the include file and instead just typed the function into the include file that had the commands to call it... even here i get the syntax error on F .

I have NO IDEA what is going on.  Can someone please shed some light .. Any suggestions or input will be great.

Thanks so much,
   K H
