Mail.Body HTML syntax

Stephan Bour

Hi,
I am using the MailMessage method to send an email from a form and I have
the following code giving me the following error on line 79:

Compiler Error Message: CS1002: ; expected
Source Error:

Line 78: Mail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html;
Line 79: string MailBody = "(<html><body>Dear " +
usercredentials.Name + " Your sequence
is:</body></html>");

But this works fine:

Line 78: Mail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html;
Line 79: string MailBody = "<html><body>Dear " +
usercredentials.Name;

So is this:

Mail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text;
string MailBody = "Your sequence is:" + Order.BlockSequence;
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Stephan.

Stephan,

You can't let string literals wrap across lines. Try this instead:

Mail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html;
string MailBody = "(<html><body>Dear " +
usercredentials.Name + " Your sequence " +
"is:</body></html>");

HTH,
Nicole
