Routines Reference

Nearly all of the content displayed in the Commerce Server Solution Sites is constructed dynamically using Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition, running within Active Server Pages (ASP). Numerous routines have been written that can be used as is for building new pages, or the routines can be modified as needed to alter existing pages and to support new pages.

It is crucial that you understand the existing Solution Sites routines in order to avoid rewriting code that has already been written and debugged. There are nearly 700 subroutines and functions in the Solution Sites files.

This reference contains one topic per routine. Each routine topic describes the purpose of the routine. A definition section shows the routine definition from the source file. For the most commonly used routines, the parameters are described in detail, return values are described where they exist, and additional remarks may be present. Each routine topic also contains a link to the topic for the file in which the routine is defined.

All routine topics are interlinked in the same fashion as their calling sequences, so that they can be traversed in the same way. This can be important when modifying existing code, and understanding the potential side effects of those changes. See the sections in each topic named "Routines Called" and "Called By".

To make the number of routines more manageable, the routine topics have been divided alphabetically as indicated.
