email.asp web form

[custardface]

ok i had created a perl email form, but my hosts gave me this today

http://www.custardface.co.uk/email.asp

but i have no idea as to what ive got to do or change im going crazy haha

<%
Dim strFrom, strTo, strSubject, strBody 'Strings for recipient, subject, boby
Dim objCDOMail 'The CDO object


'First we'll read in the values entered
strFrom = Request.Form("From")
strTo = Request.Form("to")


'These would read the message subject and body if we let you enter it
'strSubject = Request.Form("subject")
'strBody = Request.Form("body")

' Both of these should be changed before you run this script.
strSubject = Request.Form("subject")

' This is multi-lined simply for readability
strBody = Request.Form("body")

'We just check to see if someone has entered anything into the to field.
'If it's equal to nothing we show the form, otherwise we send the message.
'If you were doing this for real you might want to check other fields too
'and do a little entry validation like checking for valid syntax etc.

' Note: I was getting so many bad addresses being entered and bounced
' back to me by mailservers that I've added a quick validation routine.
If strTo = "" Or Not IsValidEmail(strTo) Then
%>
<FORM ACTION="./email.asp" METHOD="post">
From:&nbsp;
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="from" SIZE="30"></INPUT><BR>

'objCDOMail.Cc = "user@domain.com;user@domain.com"

'objCDOMail.Importance = 1 '(0=Low, 1=Normal, 2=High)
'objCDOMail.AttachFile "c:\path\filename.txt", "filename.txt"

' To do so simply set the body format to HTML and then
' compose your body using standard HTML tags.
' objCDOMail.BodyFormat = 0 ' CdoBodyFormatHTML

'Outlook gives you grief unless you also set:
' objCDOMail.MailFormat = 0 ' CdoMailFormatMime

' THIS LINE SHOULD BE UNCOMMENTED TO ACTUALLY SEND THE
' MESSAGE. PLEASE BE SURE YOU HAVE APPROPRIATE VALUES
' FOR TO AND FROM ADDRESSES AND HAVE CHANGED THE MESSAGE
' SUBJECT AND BODY BEFORE UNCOMMENTING THIS.
' Send the message!

' invalid after calling the Send method.

Thank you so much in advance

So you were given the email.asp page to work on and I assume that the code you posted was from a sample e-mail page that actually works.

Seems like one of the first things you'd want to do is change the field names to be name, email, and comment.

And actually maybe to start with you might want to create another shorter sample page that e-mails with just the bare basics.

Then add that code and a little more (i.e. the part with the posted fields info) into the details.asp page (i.e. page name extension changed from .html to be .asp)...
