Web Hosting Talk : Other Forums : Web Hosting Lounge : Looking for ASP Form Mailer

[Ron]

Does anyone know of a free ASP script for mailing forms? Preferably something that has some HTML on it for fields (name, email address, comments).

What mail components does your hosting service support?

if you can use CDONTS, its very easy to whip one up, if you cen use that - it's basically straight forward! jmail is another one I have used, but I'm not sure about how that works serverside - I was just the monkey that used it

But anywho, if you can use CDONTS - its incredibly easy..

here's a great article on it: http://www.promotionbase.com/article/596 (funnily enough the author runs a hosting company too :p)

That should get you on your way as well.

Thanks TheGAME1264, that was the first script I've even gotton to work the first time. Are you using this script? Do you know how to code it to make the fields mandatory? Otherwise the sender might click it without inputting their email.

You can use a javascript checker, or when the resubmit the page, alert them

if empty(emailaddress)
response.write "enter your address, fool!"
else
send the email
end if

Something like that

You might want to do some more checks to see if there is at least one . in the name, an @ something like that..
