submit form and redirection

[alexjimenez]

Hi, i am newbie in ASP

I try to redirect this form after submit to another page....what should i do?

Strings of form :

<%@ Page Language="C#" Debug="False" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="ComponentArt" Namespace="ComponentArt.Web.UI" Assembly="ComponentArt.Web.UI" %>
<%@ import Namespace="System.Web.Mail" %>
<script runat="server">
 
    public void Page_Load() {
      if (!IsPostBack)
            content_form.Visible = true ;
      else  {
            content_result.Visible = true ;
            content_form.Visible = false ;
           }
 
    }
 
    void submit_click(object sender, ImageClickEventArgs e)
          {
            content_form.Visible = false ;
            MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
            string recipient = "[e-mail]" ;
 
 
 
            msg.To = recipient ;
            msg.Subject = "Kaba Web Site E-Plex Software reg (Access Control)" ;
            msg.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html ;
 
 
            string message = "Please process as required. Thank You. <br>"  ;
            message += "----------------------------------------------------------- <br><br>";
           // message += "Reason you are contacting us?" + type_of_info.SelectedValue +" <br><br>" ;
            message += "Name: " + firstname.Text +  " <br><br><br>" ;
            message += "Company: "  + companyname.Text + " <br>" ;
            if( title.SelectedItem.Value != "" )
                message += "Title : " + title.SelectedItem.Value.ToString() + " <br><br><br><br>";
 
            message += "Email : " + email.Text + " <br>" ;
 
            message += "City : " + city.Text + " <br>" ;
            message += "State/Province : " + state_province.SelectedItem.Value + " <br> ";
            if ( zip.Text != "" )
                message += "Zip/Postal Code: " + zip.Text + " <br> ";
            if( phone.Text != "" )
                message += "Phone : " + phone.Text + " <br>";
            if( fax.Text != "" )
                message += "Fax : " + fax.Text + " <br>";
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
            String yes_wants_more_information_on_kaa = Request.Form["yes_wants_more_information_on_kaa"];
            String yes_mailinglist = Request.Form["yes_mailinglist"];
 
            message += "<b>Wants this (if listed): </b><br>";
 
             if (yes_wants_more_information_on_kaa != "")
             message += yes_wants_more_information_on_kaa + "<br>";
 
            if (yes_mailinglist != "")
             message += yes_mailinglist + "<br>";
 
 
 
            if( comments.Text != "" )
                message += "Additional details/comments: <br>" ;
                message += "<p class=\"content_site\" >" +  comments.Text + " </p><br>" ;
 
 
            msg.From = email.Text;
            msg.Body = message ;
            SmtpMail.SmtpServer="10.254.250.48" ;
            SmtpMail.Send(msg) ;
 
 
// *** NEED TO REDIRECT WITH SPECIAL CODE?
// Response.redirect "http://www.yahoo.com"
            content_result.Text = "";
 
 
            content_result.Visible = true ;
          }
 
</script>

Code to submit :

<asp:ImageButton id="submit" onclick="submit_click" runat="server" AlternateText="SUBMIT" ImageAlign="left" ImageUrl="/common/submit.gif"></asp:ImageButton>

In the code that you've posted, you're sending an email once you've clicked a link button on your page...and then you want to redirect the user to another page.

What is the problem with using Response.Redire ct()?
What do you mean by: "I want to redirect with special code"?
What is this "special code" supposed to do?

I put ResponseRedirec t as in :

# content_result. Text = "";
#
#
# content_result. Visible = true ;
# Response.redire ct "http://www.yahoo.com"

And this does not work, it wont redirect :( i dont know how to do a redirection after Submit.

[Frinavale]

I really don't know why this would be working for you?
Where are you redirected to?

I have tested your code (minus the email sending part) and it works fine:

I added a link button to the page:

 <asp:LinkButton ID="doRedirect" runat="server" Text="Redirect To Yahoo"></asp:LinkButton>
 

I redirect the user to Yahoo.com when the button is clicked:

   Private Sub doRedirect_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles doRedirect.Click
        Response.Redirect("http://yahoo.com", True)
    End Sub
 

Note that I'm supplying a "True" parameter to the Response.Redire ct() method. This indicates that the page should no longer be processed after the user has been redirected...th is avoids any Tread.Abortion exceptions.

Maybe if you uncomment the code responsible for redirecting the user.....it might work?

Not working :( ... i really dont understand

OK, Frinny was just giving you an example of using Response.Redire ct....and in her example she is using VB.NET, not C# like you are.

In the code you provided you are using it incorrectly.

Response.redire ct "http://www.yahoo.com"

this is incorrect. In C# you have to use parenthesis around method parameters, and end every statement with a semicolon (;). Also, C# is case-sensitive: Response.Redire ct is different than Response.redire ct.

Put this code in at the point you want to redirect:

Response.Redirect("http://www.bytes.com");

And change the bytes URL to wherever you need it to be.

Also note that the code after you redirect is pointless, since you will be taken to another page. You don't need to change anything on the page once you leave.
