The GetRef function allows you to connect a VBScript procedure (Function or Sub) to any available event on your DHTML (Dynamic HTML) pages. The DHTML object model provides information about what events are available for its various objects.

In other scripting and programming languages, the functionality provided by GetRef is referred to as a function pointer, that is, it points to the address of a procedure to be executed when the specified event occurs.

The following example illustrates the use of the GetRef function.

	Copy Code
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript"> Function GetRefTest() Dim Splash Splash = "GetRefTest Version 1.0" & vbCrLf Splash = Splash & Chr(169) & " YourCompany 1999 " MsgBox Splash End Function Set Window.Onload = GetRef("GetRefTest") </SCRIPT>
