Calling VBScript from Javascript

I've seen the related post on this, but it only covers using inline VBScript for onmouseover events, while calling a Javascript Function for the onClick.

Is there a way to call a VBScript Sub for the onClick event from a button that uses Javascript onmouseover and onmouseout events?

Currently when I try I get an error that the object does not support the property or method.

Put your code in the Head Tags: <head> </head>

Add your VBScript between these brackets:

<script type="text/vbscript">
</script>

Function myVBFunction()
    ' here comes your vbscript code
End Function

// From a hardcoded link, don't write a semicolon a the end:
<a href="#" onclick="VBscript:myVBFunction('parameter')">link</a>

You can read more about it here.

Make sure that the name of the sub you're calling doesn't match the ID of any other object in the script.

It is possible, but you will need to prefix all your script calls in HTML with the appropriate language.

onmouseover="javascript: vbfunction();"

If there are script calls that are not prefixed, you may get errors on the page as the parser doesn't know what scripting language is being used.
