.NET Email Functions

[tehon3299]

I am using the following code:

		Sub Page_Load(sender as object, e as eventargs)
			Dim from As String = "tehonica@oswego.edu"
			Dim mailto As String = Session("email")
			Dim subject As String = "Tehon.Net Account Confirmation"
			Dim body As String = "Thank you for registering with [url]http://www.Tehon.Net[/url]"
			SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "mail.oswego.edu"
			SmtpMail.Send(from, mailto, subject, body)
		End Sub

This works perfect but I would like to now use the email address from an ASP textbox instead of hard coding it. How can I do this??

Thanks

To get the text of a textbox, use its Text property:

Dim mailto As String = myTextBoxName.Text

You may not want this code in the page's load event, because (I think)
the text of the TextBox will be its default when the page
loads. It makes more sense to have this code in the Click event of
a button, or something similar.

You're correct. I took that code from another page that I am using. I need to put this in a button click event. Thanks for the insight!
