Default Email In Dremweaver - 07-07-2004 , 02:52 PM






I recently came across an interesting problem while making a web site for an
organization that I belong to. What I did is set up a username/password page
that has a table with members contact info. Of course, I also have each
person's email address in it. I also created a Flash button that will allow one
to send an email to all members. However, some people have expressed a desire
to be able to do a pick and choose to send information to certain members. Is
it possible to set up in Dreamweaver this format, or does it deal with
scripting with php or something? I'm not much at programming, but if it can't
done other way, does anyone know a tutorial or reference they can refer me to?
Again, they want to send the same message to say 2-6 people in a week, and the
specific people will change with each week.

Thanks in advance,
Stuie

What I did the only time I did this was have a page that displays the
results of a recordset in a repeating region listing the names of the
people and a checkbox next to the name. Assign the primary key for the
person as the value of the checkbox. The user checks who he wants to
send a message to, fills in the subject and message textboxes and then
submits the page. Manually coding, you can build your address string
using the results of a recordset that pulls the email addresses using
the value of the checkboxes.

Request("checkbox") gives a comma delimited list of the values of the
checkboxes (i.e., 1,3,4,7)
