My question is this:

I have been able to get a feedback form w/ Captcha working and redirecting to a page after successful completion; now I need to send the information gathered in the form to an email address. How can I get this to happen?

Thanks for your help!

----- feedback.aspx.cs -----

using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;

public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
}
protected void OnSuccess()
{
Response.Redirect("http://www.talligewi62.org");
captcha.Visible = false;
}
protected void OnFailure()
{
captcha.Message = "The text you entered was not correct. Please try again:";
}
}

Yes; but where do I put it in the file?

Here is a copy of my feedback.aspx.cs file...

using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

captcha.Visible = false;

{
captcha.Message = "The text you entered was not correct. Please try again:";
}

I believe that the below bit of code will allow me to send the form info back to me in a email (I’m not sure), and I think it would go somewhere in the OnSuccess section of the feedback.aspx.cs file; I just don’t know how to format it to make it work. After they complete the form I need it to send the info back to me and then redirect them to a different page.

SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient();
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();

try
{
MailAddress fromAddress = new MailAddress(txtEmail.Text, txtName.Text);
smtpClient.Host = "localhost";
smtpClient.Port = 25;
message.From = fromAddress;
message.To.Add("nickbradley@talligewi62.org");
message.Subject = "Talligewi 62 Website Feedback";
message.Bcc.Add(new MailAddress("winterbanquet@talligewi62.org"));
message.IsBodyHtml = false;
message.Body = txtMessage.Text;
smtpClient.Send(message);
}

No idea about OnSuccess event or OnFailure event.. Where do you get those events??

SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient("YourSMTPServer");<br />
MailMessage message = new MailMessage();<br />
<br />
try<br />
{<br />
MailAddress fromAddress = new MailAddress(txtEmail.Text, txtName.Text);<br />
smtpClient.Host = "localhost";<br />
smtpClient.Port = 25;<br />
message.From = fromAddress;<br />
message.To.Add("nickbradley@talligewi62.org");<br />
message.Subject = "Talligewi 62 Website Feedback";<br />
message.Bcc.Add(new MailAddress("winterbanquet@talligewi62.org"));<br />
message.IsBodyHtml = false;<br />
message.Body = txtMessage.Text;<br />
smtpClient.Send(message);<br />
<br />
Response.Redirect("http://www.talligewi62.org");<br />
}<br />
catch(Exception ex){<br />
}<br />

You can redirect after sending the mail

OnSuccess event and OnFailure event were included in the example file that I’m using to try and make work.

Below is a copy of two of the files that are part of my feedback form:
Something’s wrong I just don’t know what…

Is there a way I can send you a zip file with every thing so maybe you can see what’s going on here?

Okay. I understand about the OnSuccess and OnFailure.

What is this code?? You should set like that message.Body = lodge.Text + " " + remarks.Text + " " + Status.Text;..

Except this line, your code should work fine. So, please change the code as I suggested. and try again.. Let us know the result... If you still have the problems after updating, show us the error message..

The variables Email and Name do not exist. Neither does remarks, where-ever you use that.

Set the breakpoint at the "Console.Write".

catch (Exception ex)<br />
        {<br />
             Console.Write(ex.Message);<br />
        }
