I need to take a form and submit the following data:

Name: <text>
Email: <text>
Location: <text>
Age: <drop-down>
Website Rating: <drop-down>
Comments: <textarea>

and grabs a timestamp...

I have the form setup already but I've been told ASP is good to take in the info and submit it to an email. (I was using a straight email script from the form but it doesnt work with some ISP's) If anyone has a script out there to do this is would be greatly appreciated if you could sen it my way.

Thanks,

ME!

For the sake of others, here's the [link removed] of this thread.

I'm going to take the high road, and if George decides not to ban him, hope that this thread can be a *sane* continuation of the poster's original question. :)

It's a fresh start, anyway. Actually this question is clear enough that I'll go ahead and ask:

What email component are you using?

Don't know if this might hopefully help at all but www.asp101.com has a Samples section with some e-mail examples.

And CDO is generally used instead of CDONTS on IIS 5 and after (actually the SMTP service within IIS) which is generally on servers after Win NT4 (although I think CDONTS is generally still supported too).

I think the problem would be solved once the original poster decided to read and understand what his web host gave (http://www.serverobjects.com/comp/Aspmail4.htm) him.

BTW, thanks whammy for moderating that other thread.

Heh, no problem. Some people are just plain lazy... :(

ASPMail is extremely easy to use too. I used it on my band's website (our drummer does web hosting). All you have to do is read a bit of the documentation (very clear, with example scripts, and everything).
