  Hi there

  I have a server-side VB that runs at the beginning of the asp page, and it returns a result set, call it loResultSet.

  In the client side javscript, I was trying to check to see if this result set is nothing or not.

   if (<%=(loResultSet is nothing)%>)

  {

  // javscript code

  }

   

  However it bombs because that (loResultSet is nothing) returns "True", as opposed to "true", and Javascript doesn't recognize True.

  I know this is a dumb question, but how would you fix this, and I mean, not in a hack way, such as
  

  if  (%=(loResultSet is nothing)%>.toString().toLowerCase())

   

  Many thanks appreciated.
