Hot to call to ASP.NET file from VBS file ?

Question

Hi,

How can I call to a ASP.NET file (.aspx) from a VBS file that are both on the SAME server ?

I need that the VBS file will execute the asp.net file with some parameters.

Thanks

Answer 1

something like this?

Dim ie
Set ie = CreateObject("internetexplorer.app  location")
ie.Navigate "http://www.mysite.com/mypage.aspx?q=1"
ie.Visible=True

or

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") 
WshShell.Run "iexplore http://www.mysite.com/mypage.aspx?q=1", 9 
WScript.Sleep 10000 ' Give ie some time to load

'Close the browser 
WshShell.SendKeys "%F" 
WshShell.SendKeys "C"

or

rebember that you run web pages directly from the Task Scheduler and use curl

You can use ServerXMLHttp:-

 dim xhr : set xhr = CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHttp.3.0")
 xhr.open "GET", "http://yoursite/youcode.ashx?params=x", false
 xhr.send
 if xht.status = 200 then
    msgbox "Success :)"
 else
    msgbox "Failed :("

You can use the following in your .vbs file

Set winHttpRequest = CreateObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1")
winHttpRequest.Open "GET", "http://localhost/mypage.aspx", false

winHttpRequest.Send

WScript.Echo(winHttpRequest.GetAllResponseHeaders())
WScript.Echo(winHttpRequest.ResponseText)

For more examples, see http://www.neilstuff.com/winhttp/

You should be able to call any URL (including .aspx pages) on your server (or on the internet)
