JScript Error 800a1391 'MM_NameOfPage_STRING' is undefined

[JNariss]

Hello,

I have created a connection to one of my databases using DreamWeaver
and created a form. When I go to preview the form in a browser I can
see it and fill out fields. However when I click the submit button I
receive the following error:

Microsoft JScript runtime error '800a1391'

'MM_ITEmpStat_STRING' is undefined

/Connections/ITESC.asp, line 23

The code scripting behind my form is:

<%@LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<!--#include virtual="/Connections/EmployeeStatusChange.asp" -->

With line 23 being: var MM_editConnection = MM_ITEmpStat_STRING;

I have searched my little heart out for days trying to figure this damn
form out. And have come up with error after error. Now that I can
finally preview the form I feel I am well on my way to it almost being
completed.

Could someone please take the time to try to help me figure this out?

Thanks,
Justine

Microsoft JScript error code is 32 bit, where lower word is reserved
for future use.
So to get the actual error code you need bitwise AND on it:

alert(0x800a1391&0xFFFF) // 5009

By JScript errors table it's #5009 "Undefined identifier", so the error
message matches to the error type.

Indeed simple text search shows that MM_ITEmpStat_STRING was never
declared not initialized, at least
in the posted code. I guess you need to ask from the Dreamweaver
support team where this var supposes
to appear and why it did not in your case.

As it was to be expected.

It is possible that the script that was supposed to be included with

<!--#include virtual="/Connections/EmployeeStatusChange.asp" -->

contains that declaration and does not exist (there). The IIS reference
material also uses `<!-- #include ... -->' always (note the leading space),
but maybe that does not matter here.
