[How Do I:] Create a "Contact Us" Page?

In this video, i see you can send email in localhost.

private void SendMail(string from, string body)

   {

       string mailServerName = "SMTP.MyDomain.com";

       MailMessage message = new MailMessage(from, "scott@vertigosoftware.com", "feedback", body);

       SmtpClient mailClient = new SmtpClient();

       mailClient.Host = mailServerName;

       mailClient.Send(message);

       message.Dispose();

   }

On my computer,How do I rewrite that code ?

I suggest you visit a site called 4guysfromrolla.com

There you will find several, well written articles, showing you in detail how to send basic - complex emails using the system.net.mail class. The author is Scott Mitchell, a well respected MVP.

i can't download this video and the others,also i can't watch it.

cemakpolat, you just have to click the "Download the video" link and save it to your desktop. To watch the video you can download a codec pack from the internet. Just do a search for "codec pack".

Argh.. zip is corrupted.. please fix

download.microsoft.com/.../hilo_contact_final.zip

How do you get all the data to email.

the code from the example says

Protected Sub Wizard1_FinishButtonClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.WizardNavigationEventArgs) Handles Wizard1.FinishButtonClick

       SendMail(txtEmail.Text, txtComments.Text)

   End Sub

How do you get the ratings and person's name to show up.

I tried adding these in the SendMail area... but it only allows two items.  How do you get all the fields to appear in the email that is sent to you?

Use

Protected Sub Wizard1_FinishButtonClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.WizardNavigationEventArgs) Handles Wizard1.FinishButtonClick

      SendMail(txtEmail.Text, txtComments.Text, txtName.Text)

  End Sub

You can fill all the txtSomthing.Text as you want

I have no problem with this method:)

Hello,

I copied the code and config file into a new Asp.Net 3.5 website I created in VB Web Developer Express 2008 and I get an Operation has timed out error after I click the Finish button (takes a long time).  Source error: Line 16 mailClient.Send(message)

Hi,

I did this with VS2005 and used "localhost". I moved it to 2003 server and works great. I would like to populate the "Summary" section. I've never used the wizzard before.

Please show me how to populate 1 label and I will take it from there !

Thank You in Advance

Hi!

How to authenticate username and password with specific smtp port?

tnx

good thanx @@@@@@@@

great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

awesome....

Thanks! Jërëjëf!

Guys,

Great video - very helpful.

I've got one problem, the javascript in the code is not working with my browser... I even copied the code into new project and tried - nothing. I have checked that my browser is javascript enabled. It's IE 7.0.5730.13

Any ideas?

Great video - but like some other respondents, I'd like to be able to include the text box entries (more than 2) and several checkboxes in the email. I started down the path of creating a giant string something like this:

Dim MyBody As String

MyBody = tbFirstName.Text & tbLastName.Text & vbCrLF &

tbEmail.Text & vbCrLF &

cbReceiveEmail.whatproperty?? ...

msgMail.Body = MyBody

But, I get the error on each of these textboxes:

"Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference"

and from there I am totally lost. How did everyone solve this problem of including many textboxes and checkboxes in the email? Am I anywhere near on the right track?

Thanks.

There is one bad thing about wizard.. It gets really slow when I have large steps..

Is there some way to make this faster???

i cant dowenload or watch the video .why??!!

I have uploaded the VB code in a live environment but when I upload the C# I'm getting no error and no email received. All my smtp setting are exact in both code files. Any ideas? Cheers.

just like some others, i would like to know how can i send more than 2 input entries from the user. i have couple of check box, dropdown list and text box. please help...!!!!
