I found a small script on https://www.webdeveloper.com/d/49920-how-to-call-a-javascript-from-vbscript/5 that says you call simply call a VB script function in JavaScript. It also gave this example:
<HTML>
<Head>
</head>
<Script Language=JavaScript>
function callVB(){
setTimeout(function(){KeepAwake();}, 5000);
}
</Script>
<Script Language=VBScript>
Function KeepAwake()
set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"
End Function
</Script>
<Body>
<input type=button value="Call VB" onclick="callVB()">
</Body>
</HTML>
It works great. After 5 seconds it presses enter. So I put it in my own code. The hta says that the VBS function is undefined despite the VBS code being the same. Error Message
I played around with it for a while but it still wouldn't work and all I could find the internet was the same thing I was doing.
What Am I doing wrong?
Here is my own code
