Hey Blue,
Mailer.BodyText = Request.Form("Form") is the incorrect line.
The following line will send every field in the form in a comma delimited
list, but that is sort of sloppy to read:
--------------------
Mailer.BodyText = Request.Form
--------------------
With Asp, the page that is the "action" of the form has all of the form
fields available to it via the forms collection. What you would normally do
here is assign specific form fields to the values in the Mailer object like
so:
----------------------------------------------------
Mailer.FromName = Request.form("name")
Mailer.FromAddress = Request.form("email")
Mailer.RemoteHost = "mail.cateringtoyou-stl.net"
Mailer.AddRecipient "Blue Tapp", "blue(at)bluesarthouse.com"
Mailer.Subject = "[Web Inquiry] " & Request.Form("subject")
Mailer.BodyText = "Name: " & Request.form("name") & chr(13) & chr(13) &
"Message text: " & Request.form("messagetext")
-----------------------------------------------------
The above would output an email like this:
-----------------------------------------------------
Name: John Doe
Message text: Hello, I am interested in buying widgets. Please send me more
information.
------------------------------------------------------
If you have any other ASP questions, I would be more than happy to answer
them for you (I'm currently unemployed :))
