Can anyone help?
I have an asp page and wish to concatenate a Contact Name textbox to part of an email
address and place this concatenated text into an email textbox. I know how to concatenate
but unsure of how to implement this via the textbox event, onexit. Can this be done?

The code I'm using is:

Dim EnterName
Dim NewEmail
EnterName = Request.Form("txtContactName")
If Instr(EnterName," ") <> 0 Then
EnterName = Replace(EnterName," ",".")
NewEmail = EnterName & "@something.com"
End If

The html code for the email textbox is:

<Input type="text" Name="txtEmailAddress" value="<%=NewEmail%>>

Like I said not sure if this will not work until the txtContactName has an OnExit event, or something similar.
Many thanks in advance
 
You can't with ASP until the form is submitted. you will need client-side javascript forum216
