In this article I will show how to build a simple travel request form using ASP .NET that sends form data to specific users as email.
Let's get started...
Note: VS 2005 does not have Mobile Forms Template. You can download it here. Thanks Omar!!
Open Microsoft Visual Studio® .NET and start a new project of type "ASP .NET Mobile Application". In Form1.aspx, create an interface as shown below.
Double click on "Submit" and then enter in the following code:using System.Web.Mail;
private void Command1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
//perform validation
if(txtMailTo.Text=="" || txtFrom.Text=="")
{
Response.Write("Please fill in to and from fields");
}
//If the code is validated then take all
//the input values and form an HTML message
else
{
MailMessage m=new MailMessage();
//Get input values from the form
m.To= txtMailTo.Text;
m.From=txtFrom.Text;
m.Subject="Travel Request";
m.BodyFormat=MailFormat.Html;
m.Body= "Name : "+TextBox1.Text +""+
"Department : "+ TextBox2.Text +""+
"Cost Center and GL : " + TextBox3.Text +""+
"Manager : "+ Textbox4.Text +""+
"Name of VP to Authorize : " + Textbox5.Text +""+
"Destination : "+ Textbox6.Text +""+
"Date and Time of Departure : " + Textbox7.Text +""+
"Additional remarks :"+ Textbox18.Text ;
//Send the message
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(m);
//Redirect the user to another page saying
// message was sent successfully
this.RedirectToMobilePage("MsgSend.aspx");
}
}
