dear all,
i am using CCS 2.3, ASP, Oracle 9.2.
I have a kind of order detail forms, which I want to send as an html email.
In CS there is a function which parses a form. The output could be stored
in an ASP variable.
How can I do this in CCS?
The email should be send to a person for an approval and the person should
see all header and all details.
Sending an email after inserting is not the question. But how to get the
html output of these two forms in an ASP variable?
Many thanks in advance
Stephan

For a Record form, there is no single variable/array containing all the form
data that was POSTed, although ASP provides the Request.Form collection that
does have all of the data. It is indexed by field name. You can Google
"Request.Form AND ASP" to find out all the details or just go to
msdn.microsoft.com and look there.
For cases where you want data from a specific field, just ask for it with
the CCGetFromPost() function. No need to do anything more complex to access
the values.

I think I read somewhere that the whole form could be used as the body of an
email, data + layout using the whole template.
I have to dive into the post, but will give it a shot.
I'll be back.

Walter,
that's exactly what I need.
@Don: Sorry for my broken english but I want to use the output after
parsing with all the layout and data to be send as an email body.
many thanks

Hi,
I wrote similar thing earlier. I used HTMLTemplate global variable to retrieve HTML produces when showing some form. For instance if you want to use HTML produced by showing articles grid contents use:
HTMLTemplate.GetVar("Grid articles")
This retrieves HTML of a grid called articles. This is only available after grid has been shown, so for instance you may put code using this HTML in some later form's BeforeShow event, for instance:
NewRecord2.TextArea1.Value = HTMLTemplate.GetVar("Grid articles")
To retrieve form's contents in different event (for instance OnClick) you will have to add few "magic" rows to initialize templates:
Set HTMLTemplate = new clsTemplate
Set HTMLTemplate.Cache = TemplatesRepository
HTMLTemplate.LoadTemplate ScriptPath & TemplateFileName
articles.Show HTMLTemplate.Block("main")
now
HTMLTemplate.GetVar("Grid articles")
will retrieve grid's HTML which you may use when constructing your email body.
Good luck!

Can you email me your example to look at what you did, I am looking for something similar.
Cheers

Basically the whole example is just composed of the code above.
I've just created a prototype to prove it's feasible.
