Need some different approaches 2

[zxcdf5je]

Dear all,
I need some direction about how i should go on doing this:
I want some approaches on this:

i have some templates which i have prepared by using HTML.
How can i display all these templates from my DB and have a radio button next to the templates.
After the user selects or checks one of the radio buttons and hits submit,how should i tell my code that it needs to email that specific template to the user.

I dont mind implementing it in other ways too...all i need is that the agent gets to choose from the templates ,which one he/she needs to send out.
Please give me ideas about how i can accomplish this.

display radio buttons besides template names which are actually links and when clicked the user can get a preview of how the template looks and once the user decides on a particular template he/she checks the radio button and submits the form.

your database table should have the following fields TemplateID|TemplateName|TemplatePath

you can then use CDOSYS or other mailing program and FSO to email the selected template...

Sometimes web templates may include many different kinds of files. Maybe today you only have some .html files but eventually you might also have files like .js .css. .swf etc... So you might want to use an archiving standard like ZIP or TAR that is capable of combining multiple files into a sigle compressed file.

Also you might want to just allow the user to download the file rather than email it.

As sheco said i would suggest download... email is shady.
