Object reference not set to an instance of an object

[Tascien]

What's wrong with this code?

it would work perfect in vb. VB.net seem to be filled with error triggers...

<script language="VB" runat="server" src="/scripts/main_lib.vb"></script>
<script language="VB" runat="server">
Public PollMode As string = "vote"
' ***** the code below fails as object reference not set!
Public urlRedirect As String = Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME")
</script>

Please help.

Hi,

Try using
HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME")

Hope this helps

Thank you.

That works,

but, why do we have to write more codes than we used to write in vb?

Is this to make the language better? I wonder if vb.net will have
better adoption than vb was...

Not criticizing vb.net, just want to know why we would be wanting to
write more code than we used to.
