Hi,

I have successfully created a simple html form that called an asp to load customers information. The result page displayed fine. What I would like to do next is to be able to email this result page. Can someone help me or show me how to do it, please?

Thanks.

Would it help if I post the code that I have been using?

It depends upon when you want the email created.
1. Create the email automatically when the page is created.
2. Display the created page first with a button on it to email the page contents.

In either event, you need to create a string containing the specific items you want to email and then use that string as the body of the mail.

In case 1, the string creation and subsequent emailing is in addition to the page creation code.
In case 2, you'd call a separate asp to grab the information again and format it for an email.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

Thank you dpyers.

I would like to do the 2nd option. But I don't know how to put all the information in a for loop in ASP and send it to the email page.

All I have in the page content is ...


Do While Not rs.eof

response.write rs("fname") & rs("lname")

rs.MoveNext
Loop

So how do I put each fname and lname into says.. firstname1, firstname2, lastname1, lastname2 and so on and email these nicely?

Thank you again.
