Subscription Form in e-mail

Hi,
Sales guy came up with this idea for clients subscribing to a new service they want to implement.

User's will fill out a subscribtion form, and the data on it will be submitted to the database. Once the subscribtion is approved, a confirmation mail is send to the user.

From my standpoint, I guessed the subscribtion form would be a normal page hosted on the host. But they want to MAIL this page to clients, and clients should be able to fill out the form in the mail.

Now one get this mails where the body is a web page (or so it seems). So I need to know if one can have a page on the internet, but this page can also be filled in from within a mail body. Know what I'm saying?

CheersHmm, maybe you could just email them a link to the form they need to fill out? But, you can send html type emails, so you could try setting up a form string of html, with your fields and such, and set the action of the form to your aspx page that is going to process the form. And then send the html string email to them.
Hmm, maybe you could just email them a link to the form they need to fill out?. Thought about that too, but boss allready saw mails containing web pages, so need to give him a honest answer if it's possible or not.
But, you can send html type emails, so you could try setting up a form string of html, with your fields and such, and set the action of the form to your aspx page that is going to process the form. And then send the html string email to them.Make sense with the bit I figured out so far. Can anyone else comment on this?
You might even be able to send an IFrame with the src set to your registration project, which then you wouldn't have to send a form through the email, and would be alot simpler.
that make sense. you mean the body of the mail is a iFrame, and the iFrame's src property is set to say www.MySite.com/services/newsletter/signup.aspx?
that make sense. you mean the body of the mail is a iFrame, and the iFrame's src property is set to say www.MySite.com/services/newsletter/signup.aspx?
Yeah, just make sure the email is sent as html, you can set this when/if you use SMTP mail. I'd say give the IFrame a go and see how it works out.

Good luck;

Substitue ItemArray with something else in a FormView

When loading a FormView I try to fill a third-party combo control with
this code:
Protected Sub FormView1_ItemCreated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
EventArgs)
If FormView1.Row.RowState = DataControlRowState.Edit Then
Dim rowView As DataRowView = TryCast(FormView1.DataItem,
DataRowView)
If Not rowView Is Nothing Then
'Get and fill cboProject
Dim strProjectID As String =
TryCast(rowView.Row.ItemArray(8), String)
Dim cboProject As WebCombo =
TryCast(FormView1.FindControl("cboProject"), WebCombo)
cboProject.Value = strProjectID
End If
End If
End Sub
It works great except that I would like to change
"TryCast(rowView.Row.ItemArray(8), String)" and use the column name
instead of ItemArray(8). I have many columns in the FormView so it's
very difficult for me to guess which number represents a certain
column.
How can this be done?
I'm very grateful for help!
// SHi there,
First of all it's better to move databound-releated code to DataBound event
handler. Second you can access column by names directly from DataRowView:
protected Sub FormView1_DataBound( _
ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As EventArgs)
dim formView as FormView = DirectCast(sender, FormView)
if formView.CurrentMode = FormViewMode.Edit then
Dim rowView As DataRowView = TryCast( _
formView.DataItem, DataRowView)
Dim cboProject as WebCombo = TryCast( _
formView.FindControl("cboProject"), WebControl)
cboProject.Value = Convert.ToString(rowView("ColumnName"))
end if
end sub
Hope this helps

suggestions?

I want to design an asp.net page which will have multiple controls. I want
to fill one of the control when there is some action like selecting
something from its previous control...I want to simulate as if its a windows
based application and the entire page is not refereshed (trip to
server)...other controls are not involved for this task...how can I
smoothly refresh these contols...I was reading about VIEWSTATE, is that the
solution to my problem...
ThanksYou'd use client side javascript for this. Search on dropdown list
and dependent in google for examples.

Suggestions: Filling calendar with db events

I have a bunch of events and appointments in a sql server db. What is the
best way to fill a calendar with this data? As I switch months I want it to
repopulate with the "current" months data.
I'd like it to kind of work like a basic Outlook calendar.
Thanks!1. Create a calendar interface in ASP.Net/HTML.
2. Populate it with data.
3. What exactly do you need help with?

I have a calendar on the aspx page. How can I bind it to data that comes
from a sql server db?
Ex:
Event 1 - 12/1/2004
Event 2 - 12/3/2004
Event 3 - 12/5/2004
So, if you were to go on the calendar to Dec 2004 Event 1 would show up in
the 12/1 box, Event 2 in the 12/3 box, etc... If I switched the calendar to
January it would populate the calendar with January events.
Thanks Kevin.
