clueless about error 80040108

[Harvey Waxman]

suddenly get this error:


error '80040108'

/geta.asp, line 23

which is : ObjMail.Body = "Instructio ns" & vbtab & instructions & vbcrlf&_

and while I'm at it, why did the 'yourname' and the 'creditcard' fields return
blank values, (when there was no error, that is).


this is the code:

<%

instructions,tr ack,bladder,you rname,address,c ity,state,zip,c ountry,phone,cr editc
ard,expdate,ema il
instructions = Request.Form("i nstructions")

Ray,

As I said, I know nothing about ASP. I just modified a script I found. What I
see in your references are tutorials that assume I know far more than I do.

Is there any resource where I can find a simple script to email a basic form on
my web page with CDO instead of CDONTS?

That line doesn't return an error. It also looks exactly the same to me as the
line that does return the error.

"Instructio ns" & vbtab & instructions & vbcrlf&_

what do you mean?

The "&_" at the end of the line means you want to concatenate it with the
next line, which I think is the ".Send" one. That's not what you want to
happen, is it?

The line beginning with "instructio ns" is the first line of a series of fields
to be returned.

This is the code:

<%
Dim
instructions,tr ack,bladder,you rname,address,c ity,state,zip,c ountry,phone,cr editc
ard,expdate,ema il
instructions = Request.Form("i nstructions")
track = Request.Form("t rack")
bladder = Request.Form("b ladder")
yourname = Request.Form("y ourname")
address = Request.Form("a ddress")
city = Request.Form("c ity")
state = Request.Form("s tate")
zip = Request.Form("z ip")
country = Request.Form("c ountry")
phone = Request.Form("p hone")
creditcard = Request.Form("c reditcard")
expdate = Request.Form("e xpdate")
email = Request.Form("e mail")
Dim kits
kits = Request.Form("k its")
Dim ObjMail
Set ObjMail = Server.CreateOb ject("CDONTS.Ne wMail")
ObjMail.To = "hwaxman@cox.ne t"
ObjMail.From = "info@dinghydog s.com"
ObjMail.Subject = "Dinghy Dogs order"
ObjMail.Body = "Instructio ns" & vbtab & instructions & vbcrlf&_
"Track" & vbtab & track & vbcrlf&_
"Bladder" & vbtab & bladder & vbcrlf&_
"Name" & vbtab & yourname & vbcrlf&_
"Address" & vbtab & address & vbcrlf&_
"City" & vbtab & city & vbcrlf&_
"State" & vbtab & state & vbcrlf&_
"Zip" & vbtab & zip & vbcrlf&_
"Country" & vbtab & country & vbcrlf&_
"Phone" & vbtab & phone & vbcrlf&_
"Card#" & vbtab & credit & vbcrlf&_
"Exp.Date" & vbtab & expdate & vbcrlf&_

It was the " & vbcrlf&_" that needed to be removed from this line. I
misunderstood what people were telling me.

Yup!
