ISBN-10 to ISBN-13 Conversion and Check Digit Calculation

fnisbn13

This Classic ASP function will convert your old 10 digit ISBN numbers to the new ISBN-13 standard. It requires one parameter: either a 9 or 10 digit ISBN-10.

function fnisbn13(strparam1)
vari=0
varv=0
varn=0
varc=""
varResult=""
vars12=""
varISBN10=strparam1
varlen=len(varISBN10)
if varlen<9 or varlen>10 then
varResult="ERROR"
else
vars12="978"+left(varISBN10,9)
for vari=0 to 11
if varResult="" then
varc=mid(vars12,vari+1,1)
if varc>="0" and varc<="9" then
varv=varc-0
if vari mod 2<>0 then varv=3*varv
varn=varn+varv
end if
else
varResult="ERROR"
end if
next
if varResult="" then
varn=varn mod 10
if varn<>0 then varn=10-varn
varResult=vars12 & varn
end if
end if
fnisbn13=varResult
end function
