Hello all, I hope you dont mind me asking what will seem a stupid question, but this is my first go at this. I am looking for a simple ASP script and the accompanying HTML code that will allow me to have a text field where a user can input a question or comment and hit the submit button and the content will be sent to my email address. After the user hits submit I want a thank you page to come up and then redirect back to the form page. I have tried numerous scripts but have yet to figure out a way to get it working correctly. Thanks so much for your help.

Do you have the ASPemail component on your IIS server? If not, can you get it and install it? There is a free version.
http://www.aspemail.com
This is probably the most popular email component for ASP. If you cannot use this, then you are "stuck" with CDONTS.
Here is a general page template that I use for pages that display a form, then process that form.
<%
if Request.Form.Count > 0 then
'Get form variables here
firstName = Request.Form("firstName")
comments = Request.Form("comments")
call SendEmail()
call ShowThankyou()
else
call ShowForm()
end if
'------------------------------------------
function SendEmail()
'------------------------------------------
'Do your email sending thing here
end function 'SendEmail
'------------------------------------------
function ShowThankyou()
'------------------------------------------
%>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
Thanks for submitting the form!
</body>
</html>
<%
end function 'ShowThankyou
'------------------------------------------
function ShowForm()
'------------------------------------------
%>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form method=post action=MyForm.asp>
Name: <input type=text name=firstName><br>
Comments: <textarea name=comments cols=50 rows=5></textarea><br>
<input type=submit>
</form>
</body>
</html>
<%
end function 'ShowForm

Hopefully this helps you understand a basic page structure to handle first showing the blank form, then processing that form, then sending back a thank you page all in one asp file. I know many people are confused about how to do this at first.

Thanks for your help Troy. Ive come to the conclusion that I need to call Hostway because I think the problem is on their end. I have tried so many scripts its ridiculous. Thanks again, and hopefully once I get the server situated I can use your script successfully.
