VBscript not getting called/executed inside cfm page in Coldfusion2018, works well in CF11....

Adding to what others have said, I suppose there's a chance that you offered some CFML other than that HTML and Javascript. In case that's so, note that there is a "code" icon here in the editor for providing code (5th from the right in the list of icons as I see them now). It formats it distinctly and ensures that code is not list. Here's an example:

<cfif yourcode is "here">
   Then it appears separately formatted
</cfif>

Hope that may help. And if this is not the issue, please clarify what about the code you shared "doesn't work" in CF2018, since there's no CFML in it which CF would process. Also, let us know if you're using your browser's developer tools feature to try to observe what's going on. If you don't know what that means, it's ok. Just let us know either way. Thanks.

Are you testing this in IE 11 or earlier? The only browser that still supports VBScript is IE. I tried your code in IE and it works but in any other browser only the Javascript runs.

I'm not sure why that isn't working in CF2018, but you can remove the language and type attributes from the second one.  Language hasn't been used in years, and the default type is javascript.

Unless, of course, you're coding for outdated browsers.  🙂

V/r,
