Universal email and repeat region not working

Thread began 6/07/2010 2:25 pm by webassist10600 | Last modified 3/02/2011 12:33 pm by karen183060 | 5032 views | 24 replies |

Universal email and repeat region not working

I saw this thread a couple of time al-ready on the forum but I couldn't find the solution.
I use Universal E-mail 3.0.7 in a ASP environment. A newsletter needs to be sent with articles in a repeat region. The newsletter has to be sent to different e-mails coming from the database, I use therefore the Recordset Loop in the To recipient.
The newsletter is sent to all the addresses but the newsletter is empty, the articles are not shown.
Help would be very appreciate. Thanks.

the record set being used in the email is filtered on the "NieuwsbriefID" query string variable.

However, the forms action is blank, so does not pass that variable when the form posts:

<form action="" method="post" name="emailings" id="emailings">




change that to:
<form action="emailing.asp?NieuwsbriefID=<%= Request.QueryString("NieuwsbriefID") %>" method="post" name="emailings" id="emailings">

Thanks Jason for your post. I tried it but it is still not working. I see in the code of the page online that the ID is passed but the e-mails are still empty. Could it be something else?

OK, at line 255, change:

While ((Repeat2__numRows <> 0) AND (NOT artikelen.EOF))


to:

While (NOT artikelen.EOF)

Ok, lets try this then:

artikelen.Requery
While (NOT artikelen.EOF)

well that almost made the trick...the strange thing is that the introduction text, not a part of the repeat region, is only shown in the first e-mail...

MailBody = MailBody & (nieuwsbrief.Fields.Item("IntroTekst").Value)

yeah, that's because at that point the recordset is still at the end.

change:

artikelen.Requery
While (NOT artikelen.EOF)



back to:

While (NOT artikelen.EOF)




then change line 277:
