Javascript syntax

http://scottrockers.com/blog/resources/simple-code-tricks/how-to-detect-ipad-and-redirect-to-ipad-version-website

Thanks but I really don't know much of Javascript, what i do is display a region in the ASP based on user using ipad or not:

<%if ( isIPad() ) { %>
    Code for text field here
<% } else { %>
    Code for HTML editor here
<% } %>

... that being said what I need is to return 'isPad' value and not redirecting anywhere, so the javascript is quite different.

Got this error:

Microsoft JScript compilation error '800a03ee'

Expected ')'

/bluedot/Intranet/Cases/Commentspop/AddComments.asp, line 289

alert( "<%= Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_USER_AGENT")

Seems like that worked, the second part of the code gave me an error though ... here it is:

 <%if ( isIPad() ) { %>

        <label for="Comments"></label>
        <textarea name="Comments" cols="50" rows="8" id="Comments"><% if (!Lettrmrg.EOF || !Lettrmrg.BOF) { %> <%=(Lettrmrg.Fields.Item("LtrBody").Value)%>  <% } // end !Lettrmrg.EOF || !Lettrmrg.BOF %>  
        </textarea>
<% } else { %>
     <textarea id="Comments" name="Comments" class="dmxEditor" style="width:600px;height:300px"><% if (!Lettrmrg.EOF || !Lettrmrg.BOF) { %> <%=(Lettrmrg.Fields.Item("LtrBody").Value)%>  <% } // end !Lettrmrg.EOF || !Lettrmrg.BOF %>  
</textarea>
<script type="text/javascript">
  // <![CDATA[
 jQuery(document).ready(
   function()
     {
       jQuery("#Comments").dmxEditor(
         {}
       );
     }
 );
  // ]]>
</script>
<% } %>

-- the error is in the first like of the code --

Microsoft JScript runtime error '800a138f'

Object expected

/bluedot/Intranet/Cases/Commentspop/AddComments.asp, line 506

I didnt use to get an error on this part of the code ... maybe a naming is not the same as the first part of the code ?

To keep things simple this is the bottom code that displays the region based on the value captured.

 <%if ( isIPad() ) { %>
 code for text region here
<% } else { %>
 code for HTML editor here
<% } %>

<%if ( isIPad() ) { %>

I get the error above on line # 1.  Seems like the value is not being captured ?

As a matter of fact the logic that we should have in the javascript is the following:

Function isIPad()
    If InStr(Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_USER_AGENT"), "iPad") > 0 Then
        isIPad = True
    Else
        isIPad = False
    End If
End Function

The above is VBscript though ... same logic but in javascript, i dont think the current logic is the same for:

<script type='text/javascript'>
      function isIPad(){
            var isIPad = false;
            var userAgent = '<%=Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_USER_AGENT")%>';
            alert(userAgent);
            if(userAgent.indexOf("iPad") > 0) isIPad = true;
            return isIPad;
      }
</script>

I also tried using vbscript code in the javascript page:

<script type="text/vbscript">

Function isIPad()
    If InStr(Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_USER_AGENT"), "iPad") > 0 Then
        isIPad = True
    Else
        isIPad = False
    End If
End Function

 </script>

then below ...

<%if ( isIPad() ) { %>

        <label for="Comments"></label>
        <textarea name="Comments" cols="50" rows="8" id="Comments"><% if (!Lettrmrg.EOF || !Lettrmrg.BOF) { %> <%=(Lettrmrg.Fields.Item("LtrBody").Value)%>  <% } // end !Lettrmrg.EOF || !Lettrmrg.BOF %>  
        </textarea>
<% } else { %>
     <textarea id="Comments" name="Comments" class="dmxEditor" style="width:600px;height:300px"><% if (!Lettrmrg.EOF || !Lettrmrg.BOF) { %> <%=(Lettrmrg.Fields.Item("LtrBody").Value)%>  <% } // end !Lettrmrg.EOF || !Lettrmrg.BOF %>  
</textarea>
<script type="text/javascript">
  // <![CDATA[
 jQuery(document).ready(
   function()
     {
       jQuery("#Comments").dmxEditor(
         {}
       );
     }
 );
  // ]]>
</script>
<% } %>

Same error:

Microsoft JScript runtime error '800a138f'

Object expected

/bluedot/Intranet/Cases/Commentspop/AddComments.asp, line 510

If I get rid of the bottom code the page works fine with the javascript code at the top. So right now the bottom code is the issue. I will open a different ticket for this issue thanks for the javascript code help.

Ok, so I used the code above it didnt give me an y errors on any of those lines, but below in the page i get this error (Part where i display content based on the above code)

This is the base code i use to display content:

<%if ( isIPad() ) { %>
 code for text region here
<% } else { %>
 code for HTML editor here
<% } %>

But it gives me this error:

Microsoft JScript runtime error '800a138f'

Object expected

/bluedot/Intranet/Cases/Commentspop/AddComments.asp, line 515


Anything i am missing ?
