@Paul

Razor:

@{Html.EnableClientValidation();}
@using (Ajax.BeginForm(new AjaxOptions { HttpMethod = “Post”, OnComplete = “Contact.onComplete” }))
{
Html.ValidationSummary(true, “A few fields are still empty”);
}

Great information.
If you have time would you please explain how to add the code that will actually send the email.
I really appreciate your time.
Cheers,
Terry

What is the m variable for? You never explained it in this tutorial (which was, otherwise, very good).

nice, will use this for my website

however, your solution allowed me to fill in “r” in the email address field. therefore I added this regex check in the contact model for the email address:

[RegularExpression(@"[A-Za-z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Za-z0-9.-]+\.[A-Za-z]{2,4}”, ErrorMessage = “Your email address contains some errors.”)]

Hi Frederick,
I’ve tried to replicate this but i get a 404 error when I try to navigate to my contact page.

Also I had to add a couple of declarations to HomeController.cs:-
using .model;
using System.text;

If I comment out ‘[HttpPost]‘ in the HomeController, the page displays but with all of ther error messages showing.
Where do i put the address to send the email to, and or any CC or BCC options?
Can you please advise.

thanks in advance

Roger
