hello,

Question is:


I have an order form that I have the input from the form sent to an email, how do I not
have all the form elements sent to me? as in just the form elements
that are filled in/checked? I have had a very hard time finding any
answers to this. The best that I could come up with is:

'Suppressing empty fields
If you would prefer not to see the fields that were empty, add the
following hidden INPUT field to your form: <INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN
NAME='!noblank'>'

However, in putting this line of code into my form as in as a seperate
line it still sends everthing. If I name a particular form element
NAME='!noblank', this works but obviously it's only good for one
element. This when using jmail4

Here's the page that's going to act as the order form (not done yet) www.focusdesign.com/ade/msc/docs/catalog/product_cost.asp
and below is the jmail.asp script that's acting as the mailer. If you can help me with this I would really appreciate it.

thanks
Bob

I am completely new to any kind of scripting and also have this problem. I see this was posted some time ago with no response, perhaps this will bump the topic? Please?

I am using the SmartMailer extension, but would like to get rid of all the extra space in the e-mails that get sent!
Thanks.

This may be very time consuming but you could use a few IF statements around parts of your mailer code to check to see if the field was left blank when the form was filled out. Something like:
<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>
If NOT Request.Form ("First_Name" = "" Then
message = message & "First Name:" & Space(2) & first_name & VBCrLf
End If
If NOT Request.Form ("Last_Name" = "" Then
message = message & "Last Name:" & Space(2) & last_name & VBCrLf
End If
If NOT Request.Form ("Address" = "" Then
message = message & "Address:" & Space(2) & Address & VBCrLf
End If

Etc., Etc...

</font id=code></pre id=code>

A similar soloution to Trevors

if first_name &lt;&gt;"" then message = message & "First Name:" & Space(2) & first_name & VBCrLf
if last_name &lt;&gt;"" then message = message & "Last Name:" & Space(2) & last_name & VBCrLf
