Question

I want to send a Link that contains a unique identifier and verify the Guid in an another page named login.aspx

So how do I add the link and how do I retrieve the Guid from the login.aspx to compare it to the one I saved in the SQL database…

This is the code

    Sub emailConfirm()
    Dim email As String = txtMail.Text
    Dim nom As String = txtPrenom.Text + txtNom.Text
    Dim pass As String = txtPass.Text
    Dim user As String = txtUserName.Text
    Dim mail As MailMessage = New MailMessage()
    Dim sGUID As String
    sGUID = System.Guid.NewGuid.ToString()
    (I will put the guid in the Sql DB) 
    mail.To.Add(email)
    mail.From = New MailAddress("[e-mail]")
    mail.Subject = "Email Comfirmation de nouvel utilisateur"

    Dim Body As String = "Hi " + nom + ", this mail is to confirm your registration" + "Click on    the link to confirm your membership please"+"href="login.aspx?ID="& sGUID"(This is not work...)
    mail.Body = Body

    mail.IsBodyHtml = True
    Dim smtp As SmtpClient = New SmtpClient()
    smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com"
    smtp.Port = 587
    smtp.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("[e-mail]", "1234")
    smtp.EnableSsl = True
    smtp.Send(mail)


End Sub

Answer 1

Step 1:
You need to put the full url in the href not just login.aspx.
Example: “href=”http://nameofmywebsite.com/login.aspx?ID=”& sGUID”

Step 2
On the login page you would retrieve the GUID from the querystring that you passed in the href above.
Example:

request.querystring.get(“sGUID”)

Hope this helps.
