PS I chose the cheesy instant fix 3.5 compatibility.... not the best choice but as i am half way through the book i'll peresevere...
The small addition to the web confic did the trick.... and now I have learned somthing about the differences.

Did you send the e-mail to the Wrox account? That doesn't work. It accidentally worked last time but it's not the official way to send me e-mail. I replied to your personal message so hopefully you now know my real e-mail address.
Also, take a look at this:
if (txtPhoneHome.Value != '' || txtPhoneBusiness != '')
Two mistakes here. First value is not with a capital. it should be txtPhoneHome.value instead. Secondly, consider this:
txtPhoneBusiness != ''
You're comparing the entire text box with an empty string. The two will never be the same, and thus validation always succeeds. back at the server, the proper validation rules are applied and thus you only get the error aftert a postback. Add .value and it should work.
Cheers,
Imar

Error validation code
Imar
Thanks for casting your keen eye over the code. My fault for not paying attention to detail when typing Jscript. The function works perfecty now.
if (txtPhoneHome.value != '' || txtPhoneBusiness.value != '')
I am so used to writing VB where the dot parameter dos'nt always have to be used in references. Sloppy on my part. Thanks again for your expertise.
Regards
Gerry

Hi Gerry,
Never received anything on my own e-mail address; only the one from Wrox....
Can you please edit your previous message and remove my e-mail address? I am getting enough spam and junk already. That's the reason I didn't post it in the first place....
Thanks,
Imar

Just a small note on the web.config file with email settings. The debug advice in the book was good but I had to also add the outgoing port, in my case "587". just a minor detail but many providers use alternate ports.
<network host="mail.mydomain.co.uk" userName="myname@mydomain" password="password" port="587" />

Thank you.
Yes, that's a common port. I've corrected that for the 4.0 version of the book.
Cheers,
