Sending email

[stanley]

Is there a way to divert the entry to some other code?
So that when someone makes an entry it sends out an email?
Basically I need to be able to run some extra code after they submit the data and the code needs to know what data they entered to do specific things. Is there a way to perhaps capture that data before or after it is added to the DB?

TIA
Stanley

Hi Stanly,

Well, you have a couple choices.

1) ASP-db 2000 has a built-in email feature that can probably do exactly what you need.

2) Write some JavaScript code and use the built in "validation" hooks to invoke the code to send out your email.

3) At the top of your ASP file, read the values in the request("form&#34 values yourself and process them as desired.

Thanks,
John
