Question by Superchick: Newsletter/mailing list for asp.net 3.5/4.0, sql server database , visual studio 2010?
Hi guys
I really need help. My team created a website in visual studio using asp.net/ajax/jquery/vb.net
My job is creating a newsletter section. Im really having difficulty finding some source code for this. Im not a good coder so I unfortunately cant code it myself. I really need assistance
Can someone please help me? Maybe direct me to a relevant site. Ive been searching for hours and found nothing to assist me
Thanks
I understand code (kinda), but not an expert.
I want to make a textbox where users enter their email and click submit to subscribe to a newsletter. They get an email to confirm their email address. Thus validation is complete and their email address gets added to the database.
I just suck at coding thats all (yea i know its sad) and most of the source code i found had php..ms access etc, which i dont want

Not a lot of that was really relevant. sorry. i am going to go on that your trying to make a newsletter section.
If you already have a website up and a place for your page in the hosting files i would suggest just getting the html file of the basic page layout and typing over it using Dreamweaver.
(if you dont already have a designated url for your page then just upload a page called like newsletter.html and put a link from the home page that goes to http://www.example.com/newsletter.html and people will be able to find your page. )
Everytime you need to upload a newsletter just Download your page through an FTP client (ie. Filezilla) and change the text. (then re upload)
Also if you dont know how to change text on a website why are you working on one? Are you possibly misunderstanding your job as to just give someone the newsletter you wrote. because no offence but for someone who knows html (the guy who build the website, this would not be very hard at all and take less then 1 minute.)
