What are the advantages/disadvantages of using this form submission approach as opposed to eg: Cdo, aspEmail - it appears to harness the MS standard mailto capability?:
<FORM ENCTYPE="text/plain" NAME="test" METHOD='POST'
ACTION='mailto:info@examle.com?subject=Resume' onSubmit="return
submitForm()">
In my page, i have 6 textbox field:
name, id, email address, age and bookingStatus, bookingMessage.
when i click a button in the page(mailto), the ms outlook will opened, and all the information in the field(name, id, email address, bookingStatus, and bookingMessage) will be displayed in the ms outlook in the message part before i send the email.
I want to use the "mailto" code!
The form will be emailed to the user according to the email field, that means, the "mailto" address will come from the form "email address field" in the form
The subject of the email will be: fixed as "BOOKING STATUS"
I have to use mailto so the pages opens up the users default client. I need
to format the body of the email in HTML format so I can show some the text
in bold, italics and underlined? Is this possible to do? if so how?
I'm just learning ASP. I have a mailto and I have a lot of text that I want to display in the body. Is there a way to store that text in a variable & then add it to the mailto tag?
View Replies View RelatedThis may be a daft question, but if I wanted to use a simple mailto, i.e Code:
<a href="mailto:joe@bloggs.co.uk"></a>
Is this wise? from a spamming point of view. I am aware of encoders out there that basically make jargon from an email address which fools the robots, am i talking rubbish or what? Basically! Is it wise to use standard mailto links or is there a better way?
ok I have a page that displays all of the 3000+ records of people, phone numbers, and email addresses. on this page I have added a link that combines all of the e-mail addresses into one mailto: link so that we can mass notify these people of upcoming projects. the problem is that i think the link is too big for the browser to handle. the view source shows that everything is there but i cannot click the link. i have tried both IE and FireFox to no avail. The code is below just in case i have a typo or something...
sql = "Select * from people WHERE (IsNull(m_idstatus) OR m_idstatus <> 'id2') AND (m_email Like '%@%')"
...
y = 0
do while not rs.eof
If (rs("m_email") = "" OR IsNull(rs("m_email"))) Then
e_email = e_email
Else
e_email = e_email & rs("m_first_name") & " " & rs("m_last_name") & "(" & rs("m_email") & "); "
y = y + 1
End If
rs.movenext
loop
...
<a href="mailto:?bcc=<%= e_email %>">E-MAIL ALL</a> |
I have also tried changing the format of the link by adding test@test.com before the ?bcc= but get the same results on both browsers. Like I said in the beginning I assume that the link is just too big for the browser; does anyone have any ideas besides making a mail form in the page? I would prefer to stick with a mailto link so that we can keep internal Outlook features.
I have created simple .asp page and i would like to send my page as email using my outlook. is it possible to send form body as new email outlook body using mailto

I have a form that is dynamically generated since it is populated with values retrieved from a database. The form can of course also be submitted, which is where I run into some problems.
Since I never know in advance what the length of the form (or for that matter what the different elements' names and values) will be I don't know how to write the code in "receive.asp" to retrieve all values from the form correctly without excess use of "request.....".
I shouldn't have to write requests for every single potential element name that is stored in the DB. Please note that the form can sometimes also contain radio buttons and check boxes, even though they are not present in this short example Code:
I have a form as follows:
<form action="dropboxsubmit.asp" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

etc.....
and can't get my asp to recognize data in other form input boxes using Request.Form
Any thoughts?
In my prototype asp page (with no javascript and no password validation, I have a registration form with the following action:
<form name="form" method="post" action="RegDetails.asp">
This works fine, the form details are collected by RegDetails.asp
I am attempting to include javascript server side validation for the pasword, which obviously requires password and password2 fields (to be verified). I have used the script available at:
http://javascript.internet.com/forms/val-pass.html
It works fine in a new blank page with the form action:
<form name=myForm onSubmit="return validatePwd()">
The final stage in this javascript demo form displays an alert box:
else {
alert('Nice job.');
return true;
When I change the first line of my original form to:
<form name=myForm onSubmit="return validatePwd()">
how do I get my original action of - action="RegDetails.asp" instead of this alert box?

Basically, what needs to happen is if 3 guests are attending, I need the Name, address, city, state fields to repeat so they can be filled in with information.
Then all of the information from the whole form is submitted which returns an email to the administrator of the event.

I have a series a forms that submit data to different tables in a database. As it stands, when a user completes FORM 1 and clicks the SUBMIT button, the FORM 1 data is submitted (action = form2.asp, method = post) to ASP code at the top of FORM 2 (request.form("form1 field name") etc...), and submitted to the database with SQL code, also at the top of FORM 2(INSERT into...). Hence the submit button on FORM 1 directs the user to FORM 2, and submits the data which is exaclty what I wanted. However, I now need the users to submit multiple sets of data with FORM 1, and direct them to FORM 2 once they have finished using FORM 1. Most importantly, I need to pass a few parameters from FORM 1 to FORM 2, and have these parameters submitted to the database.
My main problem is getting a fresh form1 after submiting the same form1, in preparation for anoter set of data using the same form. Basically, the database has 'one to many' relationship tables. Form1 and form2 are both populating the 'many' tables, so that each form needs to be filled-in several times while retaining the key field of the 'one' table. At the moment submiting form1 takes me to form2. Is is possible to submit the data to the database, get form1 back again to submit more data, as many times as required, then click another button to load form2 when the user is finished with form1?
Can anyone please give me some pointers? or at least explain the concept of what I need to do. I am a novice and it's taking me a while to get to this stage. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Is it possible to post FORM1 to itself and insert the data (i.e. place the request.form at the top of FORM 1) If so, how do I direct users to FORM 2 while retaining my parameters?
While I can extract the option value from the following:
<Select name='Keystring' MULTIPLE>
<option value='1' name='status'>Pending</option>
.....
</select>
I cannot seem to extract the corresponding 'display' value when I do a
For...Next Loop:
for each keystring in Request.Form("Keystring")
keystring=request("keystring")
Next
How do I aslo get hold of that 'display' value eg 'Pending'...is it
possible?

I have an html form where a serial # is entered and goes to an asp page to determine wether it is a res or comm number, then directs to another form where they can finish entering info to register the serial number. I want the second form to display the serial # entered in the first form. How do I do that??

View Replies View RelatedI have an Access application which need to be converted to asp-sql server
application. This Access application uses a single form. This form has got a
SS number with names and age.
The form has two subforms. One of the subform
uses a physical test score which is basically four different fields while the
other subform is one that has a written test score with three fields. Entry
to both physical and written scores are done through this form. Both the
forms can have multiple entries to make sure we are tracking historical
scores.
The relationship between the ssn table and the physical test score
table is 1: n while that between ssn table and the written score table is 1:
n. With this scenario what is the best way to design form in asp pages?
have one form on an html page post to another form on the same page? I would like to have the information (all of the second form) hidden until the post is sent to it. Is that possible too?
