OK whats the most reliable straight forward way to create e-mail contact forms in umbraco?
I have used contour in the past however I didn't realise that you had to pay for it :-( and the price for one or two forms on a site is way to much, so I was thinking, the best way to do this would be some kind of user control, but what is the best way to implement this using umbraco?
Should I have a every day plain html form and post this to a file that does the rest, if so how do I deal with redirecting the user to a thank you page after?
or asp webform controls and grab the vaules from the controls on the page.... *puzzled*
The reason I have posted this in the razor form is beucase I have always used XSLT and its about time I got my feet wet...
Please provide any links or code examples (I like examples :-))
If you don't mind making a form in a User Control you can have a look at my Digibiz Email Form with TinyMCE package. On the documentation tab there is a sample project.
HTML - Form - Email - Razor Advice please?

Will check both of them out and get back to you, thanks guys.
If you want more info on how to use a User Control in Umbraco have a look at this free video: http://umbraco.com/help-and-support/video-tutorials/introduction-to-umbraco/developer-introduction/using-net-user-controls/TVPlayerPopup.
You need to use the sample project in the same way as in that video.

Did you try the Razor or UserControl solution?
