Chapter 9

Working with Forms

Even though the Microsoft Windows Script Host (WSH) object model and the JScript and VBScript languages don't support methods or functions for creating or showing forms, you can still implement user forms in scripts. In this chapter, I'll first explain how to use Microsoft Internet Explorer as a front end to display the content of an HTML file as a kind of advanced About dialog box. Then I'll explain how to use Internet Explorer as a front end to display the content of an HTML form under the control of a WSH script. You'll also learn how to use event handling in WSH scripts.
