Unit 7: Introduction to ASP (Active Server Pages)

Loop Notes
%>
The While statement executes the statements in its loop until the given condition remains true.
The moment it becomes false, the loop halts.
Remember to end the While Statement with the Wend Keyword.

A variation of the While loop that tests the condition after the loop is the Do-loop.
<%
Do
TimePass()
Until ExamDate – Now = 30
%>
I hope the meaning is amply clear from the example above.

Self Assessment

Fill in the blank:
13. Using the ............................. statement assures that all items in that collection will be
processed, and no “Array Index Out Of Bounds” errors will be generated.

7.7 Select Case

To make a choice between a set of items that can be assigned to a variable, use the Select Case
statement.
<%
Select Case Choice
Case “1”:

Response.Write “You chose 1”
Case “2”:
Response.Write “You chose 2”
Case “3”:

Response.Write “You chose 3”
Case “4”:
Response.Write “You chose 4”
End Select

%>

7.8 ASP Arrays

Arrays in ASP follow the exact same form and rules as those arrays in VBScript. You can create
an array of specific size or you can create a dynamic sized array. Below we have examples of
both types of arrays.
