Assuming you want this client side as opposed to ASP;
If you place the JScript block before the VBScript block (or wire the call to a load event) that will work fine. (IE only of course)
...
<head>
<script type="text/vbscript">
function foo
call jsfunction()
end function
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function jsfunction()
{
alert("hello");
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="foo()">
...

Calling a VBScript function from Javascript Your VBScript:
Function myVBFunction()
' here comes your vbscript code
End Function
Your Javascript:
function myJavascriptFunction(){
myVBFunction(); // calls the vbs function
}
window.onload = myJavascriptFunction;
Alternatives (incompatible in some IE versions):
// This one:
window.onload = function(){ myVBFunction(); }
// This will also work:
window.onload = myVBFunction();
// Or simply:
myVBFunction();
// From a hardcoded link, don't write a semicolon a the end:
<a href="#" onclick="VBscript:myVBFunction('parameter')">link</a>

Try this ...
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<script language="JavaScript" >
function jsfunction()
{
alert("Hello")
}
</script>
<%
Response.Write "Calling =" jsfunction() "."
%>
</BODY>
</HTML>

@road.. thank you but can you explain Response.Write "Calling =" jsfunction() "." why you wrote like this... please
Instead of alert we should write return which is in turn print the values on page using response.write-
code is below -
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<script language="JavaScript" runat="server">
function test() {
return "Test";
}
</script>
<%
Response.Write "Value returned =" & test() & "."
%>
</BODY>
</HTML>
