How do I put multiple form parts in to the body section of an email (in V.B. asp.net 2.0 System.Net.

Use a StringBuilder to concatenate different parts of the body.

Something like :

//In your SendEmail_Click function
//<%@ Import Namespace='System.Text' %>

System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
sb.Append('DASP');
sb.Append('IS');
sb.Append(' THE');
sb.Append('BEST');


mm.Body = sb.ToString();

Today I am making a form that get sent through email using System.Net.Mail (asp.net 2.0) and want to know how I would best send multiple form information in one body section on an email</o>


All I have read is that you can ? use StringBuilder class. Append all parts to the message and pass it to mm.Body? SOUNDS GOOD, But I don?t know how, or what the code is or where to find the code

I know it should be my job to find it my self, but I would love all the code to Append all parts to the message and pass it to mm.Body, Somehow add all the TextBox parts and other things in to one-thing andcall that the body, I would love to know how

This is my code at the moment
<%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/MasterPage.master" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="CoverLetter.aspx.vb" Inherits="Contact" Title="My Super Resume: Starter----" %></o>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Net.Mail" %></o>
</o>
<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="Server"></o>
</o>
<script runat="server"></o>
</o>
Protected Sub SendEmail_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles SendEmail.Click

</o>
'!!! UPDATE THIS VALUE TO YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS</o>
Const ToAddress As String = "[email protected]"</o>
</o>
'(1) Create the MailMessage instance</o>
Dim mm As New MailMessage(UsersEmail.Text, ToAddress)</o>
</o>
'(2) Assign the MailMessage's properties-This is the code to specify and send the email body</o>
mm.Subject = "Form Test"</o>
mm.Body = Body.Text</o>
mm.IsBodyHtml = True</o>
</o>
'(3) Create the SmtpClient object</o>
Dim smtp As New SmtpClient</o>
</o>
'(4) Send the MailMessage (will use the Web.config settings)</o>
smtp.Send(mm)</o>
End Sub

Subject:</b>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="Subject" Columns="30"></asp:TextBox></td></o>

</o>
b>Body:</b>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="Body" TextMode="MultiLine" Columns="55" Rows="10"></asp:TextBox>

DASP IS THE BEST !
- I got it to work

Dim sb As StringBuilder = New StringBuilder()
sb.Append(Body.Text)
sb.Append(TextBox1.Text)

mm.Body = sb.ToString()

Excellent



Now what I have to do is add something to separate the fields in the email because what I'm getting is:

Online Form:

Name: michael

Body: 123 456 789


Email Body:

michael123 456 789

I.E.:

Form Code:




FORM:







Email from Form:

or:

Body.Text.Replace(System.Environment.NewLine, "")



sb.Append("Cover Letter Body:" &amp; "" &amp; Body.Text.Replace(System.Environment.NewLine, "") &amp; "" &amp; "")The new formcomes out great http://www.budgetwebdesign.com.au/contact-us.aspx

Since you have set 'IsBodyHtml' property to true,you will need to use HTML tags to format your body .Otherwise set it to false instead and you could send regular text to send exactly in a format within the Textbox.
