Hi! I have a funny problem. I have a simple code that sends email from the form. When I click on the button "Submit" I get 2 emails instead of 1. Could somebody help me to see where I made a mistake? Here is the code in code behind Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim objEmail As New MailMessage objEmail.To.Add(New MailAddress("[email protected]")) objEmail.From = New MailAddress("[email protected]") objEmail.Subject = "Question from website" objEmail.Body = FName.Value & vbCrLf & " " & LName.Value & vbCrLf & " Phone: " & Phone.Value & vbCrLf & " Email: " & Email.Value & vbCrLf & " " & Comments.Value objEmail.Priority = MailPriority.High Dim SmtpMail As New SmtpClient SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost" Try SmtpMail.Send(objEmail) lblMessage.Text = "Your Question has been send" Catch exc As Exception Response.Write("Send failure: " + exc.ToString()) End Try End Sub Here is HTML: <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" OnClick="Button1_Click" CommandName="Submit" Text="Send Your Question" ValidationGroup="AskMaria" /> Any suggestions?
The code you posted should not send 2 messages. I suggest you check the emails header and see if they have the same messageID. If they do, then the message is simply getting downloaded twice. If not, somewhere else in the code is sending this again. May be in the onload method? Bruce DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET
Hi, Bruce, Thanks for the reply. I checked the messages and the header is not the same. I took off from form tag method="post" and I got only one message, as God intended. Though I cannot explain why Thanks again Larisa
Actually, I was too fast. I still have 2 emails. Here is my full code behind: Partial Class AskMaria Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim objEmail As New MailMessage objEmail.To.Add(New MailAddress("[email protected]")) objEmail.From = New MailAddress("[email protected]") objEmail.Subject = "Question from website" objEmail.Body = FName.Value & vbCrLf & " " & LName.Value & vbCrLf & " Phone: " & Phone.Value & vbCrLf & " Email: " & Email.Value & vbCrLf & " " & Comments.Value objEmail.Priority = MailPriority.High Dim SmtpMail As New SmtpClient 'SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost" Try SmtpMail.Send(objEmail) lblMessage.Text = "Your Question has been send" Catch exc As Exception Response.Write("Send failure: " + exc.ToString()) End Try End Sub Protected Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click Response.Redirect("http://www.marsoskincare.com/askmaria.aspx") End Sub End Class My HTML <%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="AskMaria.aspx.vb" Inherits="AskMaria" %> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" > <head> <link href="http://www.marsoskincare.com/style/marso.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <link href="http://www.marsoskincare.com/style/table.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <link href="http://store.artofappearance.com/merchant2/form.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <title>Ask Maria</title> </head> <table class="table"><tr><td> <img border="0" src="http://store.artofappearance.com/merchant2/graphics/00000001/MARSO_BANNER.jpg" width="760" height="102" /></td></tr></table> <table class="table"><tr> <td id="nav" colspan="2"> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.marsoskincare.com/aboutmaria.HTM">About Maria</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.marsoskincare.com/skinanalysis.aspx">Skin Analysis</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.marsoskincare.com/testimonials.htm">Testimonials</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.artofappearance.com/gift.htm">Gift Ideas</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.artofappearance.com/articles.htm">Articles</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.artofappearance.com/articles.htm">Ask Maria</b></a></li></ul> </td></tr><tr><td> <table id="TABLE1" style="width: 782px"> <tr> <td align="left" valign="top"> <asp:Label id="lblMessage" runat="server" Font-Bold="True" Font-Names="Arial" Font-Size="Medium" ForeColor="#C00000"></asp:Label> <form runat="server" > <table > <tr> <th >First Name</th> <td><input id="FName" name="FName" type="text" value="" size="8" maxlength="50" runat="server" style="width:90px" /> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="FName" ErrorMessage="Please enter first name" Style="position: relative" ValidationGroup="AskMaria" SetFocusOnError="True">Required</asp:RequiredFieldValidator></td> </tr> <tr> <th >Last Name</th> <td><input id="LName" name="LName" value="" size="8" maxlength="50" runat="server" style="width:90px" /> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator2" runat="server" ControlToValidate="LName" ErrorMessage="Please input last name" Style="position: relative" ValidationGroup="AskMaria" SetFocusOnError="True">Required</asp:RequiredFieldValidator></td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row"><label>Email</label></th> <td><input id="Email" name="Email" type="text" value="" size="8" maxlength="50" runat="server" style="width:90px" /> <asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="RegularExpressionValidator1" runat="server" ControlToValidate="Email" ErrorMessage="Please input valid email address" Style="position: relative" ValidationExpression="\w+([-+.']\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*" ValidationGroup="AskMaria" SetFocusOnError="True">Required</asp:RegularExpressionValidator> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="RequiredFieldValidator3" runat="server" ControlToValidate="Email" ErrorMessage="Please enter email address" Style="position: relative" ValidationGroup="AskMaria"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator></td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Phone(Optional)</th> <td><input id="Phone" name="Phone" type="text" value="" size="8" maxlength="50" runat="server" style="width:90px" /></td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Your Question </th> <td> <textarea id="Comments" name="Comments" runat="server" cols="30" rows="3"></textarea> </td> </tr> <tr><td colspan="2"> <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" OnClick="Button1_Click" CommandName="Submit" Text="Send Your Question" ValidationGroup="AskMaria" /> <asp:Button ID="Button2" OnClick="Button2_Click" runat="server" Text="Reset" /> </td></tr> </table> <asp:ValidationSummary ID="ValidationSummary1" runat="server" Style="position: relative" ValidationGroup="AskMaria" HeaderText="Please fill in all required fields!"

Was the SMTP serverset? I see the following commented in your code: 'SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost" Also,I see that some of your asp.net controls are not within the form tags.All server controls should appear within the form tags. In general your aspxpage shouldbe like; <form id="form1" runat="server">All server+html controls here</form></form></body> The code within Button1_Click looks fine.There is no reason for it to send the email twice.

Vvsharma! Thanks for looking! I have an error message BC30456: 'SmtpClient' is not a member of 'System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient'. when I have the line on 'SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost" Otherwise I did all you said still have 2 messages instead of 1 Please advise how to set up smtpServer! Larisa
Can you try the code specified here : http://kb.discountasp.net/article.aspx?id=10443and let us know whether you still face the issue? Vikram DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET
Aristotle, It worked like a charm, I just took off the "Handles Button1_Click" and I get 1 message now. Thanks!
The cause may be due to the fact that you have the Handles Button1.Click in the Sub and an OnClick property in the control. This is probably triggering it twice. Use one or the other. Aristotle DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET
