JScript supports three primitive datatypes:
string
number
boolean
Method arguments and return values and event parameters are one of these basic types, or an object type.
DataWindow methods that deal with specific datatypes, such as GetItemDecimal, are not available for the Web ActiveX. Instead, you use the method that handles the more general data type, such as GetItemNumber.
PowerBuilder has several date and time datatypes, but in JScript these all map to the Date object.
PowerBuilder enumerated datatypes have named values, but in JScript, each value is a number. The list of numbers (and their meaning) is documented in the DataWindow Reference for each enumerated data type.
