Sending an e-mail via set template

Hi,

I have made a quick example here for you.  So say for any for you have, for the event of the submit button, either add this code or have it as the event handler.  Basically it emnails you all the information from the posted form values prefixing with the name.

Cheers

Andrew

    protected void TemplatedEmailFormData(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        StringBuilder sb1 = new StringBuilder();
        foreach (string s in Request.Form)
        {
            sb1.AppendLine(s + " : " + Request.Form[s]);
        }
        MailAddress FromAddress = new MailAddress("user1@email.com");
        MailAddress ToAddress = new MailAddress("user1@email.com");
        MailMessage message = new MailMessage(FromAddress, ToAddress);
        message.Body = sb1.ToString();
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1", 25);
        client.Send(message);
    }

I would only like the data from one txt box rather than all the values enetered by the user.

then simply this

Andrew

    protected void TemplatedEmailFormData(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        MailAddress FromAddress = new MailAddress("user1@email.com");
        MailAddress ToAddress = new MailAddress("user1@email.com");
        MailMessage message = new MailMessage(FromAddress, ToAddress);
        message.Body = YourTextBox.Text;
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1", 25);
        client.Send(message);
    }

Select allOpen in new window

What about the subject of the e-mail?? where does that go??

Thanks,

introlux

Cheers,

Andrew

   protected void TemplatedEmailFormData(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        MailAddress FromAddress = new MailAddress("user1@email.com");
        MailAddress ToAddress = new MailAddress("user1@email.com");
        MailMessage message = new MailMessage(FromAddress, ToAddress);
        message.Body = YourTextBox.Text;
        message.Subject = "Subject";
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1", 25);
        client.Send(message);
    }

I am sorry as I am on the beginner level. The code i assume is added into the CS file which I have. How will I ensure that this has run after the button has been clicked.

Also in the body, I would like to inserted the text.box while in a sentence. E.g. The new project txtPName.text has been commissioned.

How will I do this??

    protected void TemplatedEmailFormData(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        MailAddress FromAddress = new MailAddress("project@theidfactor.com");
        MailAddress ToAddress = new MailAddress("project@theidfactor.com");
        MailMessage message = new MailMessage(FromAddress, ToAddress);
        message.Subject = "New Project Has been commissioned";
        message.Body = txtPName.Text 'Has now been commissioned';
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1", 25);
        client.Send(message);
    }

Select allOpen in new window

??????

OK, you are simply missing a plus sign:

Cheers

Andrew :-)

   protected void TemplatedEmailFormData(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        MailAddress FromAddress = new MailAddress("project@theidfactor.com");
        MailAddress ToAddress = new MailAddress("project@theidfactor.com");
        MailMessage message = new MailMessage(FromAddress, ToAddress);
        message.Subject = "New Project Has been commissioned";
        message.Body = txtPName.Text + 'Has now been commissioned';
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1", 25);
        client.Send(message);
    }

Select allOpen in new window

oh and use double quotes not single quotes.

I take it you put this code in the CS. But how will i execute this command???

thanks,

introlux

you will have a Button, so you simple add this to its onclick event

OnClick="TemplatedEmailFormData"

What if I have a command already on the OnClick=

Is it possible to add two multiple commands???

????????

yes, so just add this code block, either at the end or the beginning of your current function

aslong as you code between the two curly brackets you can put as much code in there as you want.  

Andrew

        MailAddress FromAddress = new MailAddress("project@theidfactor.com");
        MailAddress ToAddress = new MailAddress("project@theidfactor.com");
        MailMessage message = new MailMessage(FromAddress, ToAddress);
        message.Subject = "New Project Has been commissioned";
        message.Body = txtPName.Text + 'Has now been commissioned';
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1", 25);
        client.Send(message);

When trying to run it, I am getting the following error message:

Compiler Error Message: CS0246: The type or namespace name 'MailAddress' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Source Error:

 

Line 21:        protected void TemplatedEmailFormData(object sender, EventArgs e)
Line 22:     {
Line 23:         MailAddress FromAddress = new MailAddress("project@theidfactor.com");
Line 24:         MailAddress ToAddress = new MailAddress("project@theidfactor.com");
Line 25:         MailMessage message = new MailMessage(FromAddress, ToAddress);
 

at the top you need to inlude this line

using System.Net.Mail;

I get this error now:

Compiler Error Message: CS0149: Method name expected

??????????????

This is a very simple error which I have looked all over the internet but no luck. I have tried every possible ways to have multiple commands being executed

Thanks

Before you attempt this you need to read up on Basic C# syntax and event handlers, as I am struggling to jump in and fill all the gaps.  Have a read through some tutorials first.

I have read through some examples and all only explain how to execute one command. Hence I have two:

AddCredentials_Click
TemplatedEmailFormData

AddCredentials_Click = This adds data into the access database
TemplatedEmailFormData = This sends an e-mail

I want both of these to run at the same time the button 'Print' is clicked by the user.

Thanks

check this.

I have

pubilc void DoSomethingA()
{
}

and
pubilc void DoSomethingB()
{
}

I could simply write this:

pubilc void DoSomethingA(object sender,EventArgs e)
{
DoSomethingB();
DoSomethingC();
}

OnClick="DoSomethingA"

So here I call DoSomethingA on the onclick and in turn it then calls the other two functions DoSomthingB and DoSomethingC

Cheers

Andrew :-)

I have done what you have said. I am now getting the following error message:

Compiler Error Message: CS1501: No overload for method 'CheckCredentials_Click' takes '0' arguments

Source Error:

 

Line 32:     void multipleTask(object sender,EventArgs e)
Line 33:     {
Line 34:         CheckCredentials_Click();
Line 35:         TemplatedEmailFormData();
Line 36: }
 

????????????

I meant fo you to get that from my example, you simply need to place the other function call inside your original function for the button.

AddCredentials_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//YOUR CODE HERE!!

//NOW MY CODE
        MailAddress FromAddress = new MailAddress("project@theidfactor.com");
        MailAddress ToAddress = new MailAddress("project@theidfactor.com");
        MailMessage message = new MailMessage(FromAddress, ToAddress);
        message.Subject = "New Project Has been commissioned";
        message.Body = txtPName.Text + 'Has now been commissioned';
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1", 25);
        client.Send(message);

//NOW ANY OTHER FUNCTION IF YOU WANT
AnotherFunctionOrTwoHere();

//NOW CLOSE THE FUNCTION BLOCK
}

p.s. make sure you know and insert the email provider host you have. replace the 127.0.0.1 with the actual email host address if it is not the same as that.  i.e. a dedictaed server

Im still having problem with the layout you have just showed me. The mail host i will sort that out later

Thanks
