How do I set up required fields in JMail form?

[yeboyebo]

I use this simple code embedded in a thankyou-page being called from a form:

<%

SET JMail = Server.CreateObject("JMail.SMTPMail")
JMail.ServerAddress = "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"

JMail.Sender = "xxx@xxx.xxx"

JMail.Subject = "Subject of message"

JMail.AddRecipient "yyy@yyy.com"

JMail.Body = " " & vbCrLf &_
 " Name: " & Request("name") & vbCrLf &_
 " Address: " & Request("address") & vbCrLf &_
 " Email: " & Request("email") & vbCrLf &_
 " Phone: " & Request("phone")  & vbCrLf &_
 " Message: " & Request("message")  & vbCrLf 

JMail.Priority = 3

JMail.AddHeader "Originating-IP", Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR")

JMail.Execute

%>

Emails go through well, but I would now like to make certain fields in the form required. Would anyone be able to help me with this, perhaps point me in the direction of the code to input above and an error-checking function that needs embedding somewhere?

Many thanks for any feedback available!

Funny, I thought this would be an easy one for someone working more in ASP than me. Turns out it was trickier than I thought... Bummer.

Just in case someone else wnats to know the answer, I gave up and did what I should've done from the start, being a noob on asp: I used the software 'Forms To Go' (bebosoft.com/products/formstogo/) instead and everything worked fine. When looking at the code it was pretty good too. So that's my advice to anyone in the same situation.

Sorry you weren't able to get help with JMail, but I'm glad you were able to find a tool that worked for you, and that you shared your findings with us.

Had I read your message sooner, I would have suggested that you search Google for JMail tutorials. There seem to be quite a few resources. Perhaps one of them would have helped. Often, the documentation that comes with the software will answer any questions you might have. Always be sure to read that first.

Anyway, this is my 2 cents for the next person who might be searching for the same kind of help.
