FileContents
Returns all the text in the named file.
- Syntax
-
TextOut = FileContents(FileName)
FileName - Required text argument that specifies the name of the file.
Remarks
If the file does not exist,
an empty string is returned.
The file can contain binary data.
This function is intended for use with HTML Templates.
But it is general enough to use elsewhere.
Examples of using this function with HTML templates are in the User Guide.
Note: This function is called by LoadRequest in VbWeb.Bas.

FileExists
Returns the boolean value True if the named file exists.
- Syntax
-
If FileExists(FileName) Then ...
FileName - Required text argument that specifies the name of the file.
Note: This function is called by LoadRequest in VbWeb.Bas.

GetRequest
Returns the value in the Name/Value pair that matches the name provided.
- Syntax
-
Value = GetRequest(Name)
Name - Required text that is the Name part
in a Name/Value pair in the visitor's request.
Remarks
For most cases, this is just the same as using
the Request collection directly like this.
Value = Request(Name)(1)
The difference is when Name is not found
or Name has more than one Value.
If Name is not in any Name/Value pair,
then GetRequest returns an empty string.
If multiple Name/Value pairs match,
then GetRequest returns a comma delimited list of Values.
