How to Send an Email With App Setting in Web Config File.

A few years ago I was thinking about converting some of my settings to be accessed in one place. The other day a happened to run across this example that displays exactly how I approached it back then.  The problem was, back then there wasn't the resources available like there are today.  This example is strait to the point and will get you on the right path.  You can also incorporate any additional settings like this example into your config file as well. CODE EXAMPLE
Happy Coding!!!! ☺

Creating a JQuery Alert for a Specific Date or Date Range

Recently, one of my clients needed an alert to display changes to one of their processes. They needed it to display every time a user visited the page until it reached a specific date. In the example below I've created a basic Javascript function that allows you to enter a start date, end date and return type. For example, after you've added your start and end date you want to either put in weeks, days, hours, minutes or seconds into the interval property. Next, create a JQUERY function that will call the datediff and display an alert dialog with the content you've assigned which in this case is a div that has an id of "alertDate".

//START HEAD SECTION

<script>
function datediff(fromDate, toDate, interval) {
   var second = 1000, minute = second * 60, hour = minute * 60, 
   day = hour * 24,week = day * 7;
   fromDate = new Date(fromDate);
   toDate = new Date(toDate);
   var timediff = toDate - fromDate;
   if (isNaN(timediff)) return NaN;
   switch (interval) {
   case "years": return toDate.getFullYear() - fromDate.getFullYear();
   case "months": return ((toDate.getFullYear() * 12 + toDate.getMonth())
   -
   (fromDate.getFullYear() * 12 + fromDate.getMonth()));
   case "weeks": return Math.floor(timediff / week);
   case "days": return Math.floor(timediff / day);
   case "hours": return Math.floor(timediff / hour);
   case "minutes": return Math.floor(timediff / minute);
   case "seconds": return Math.floor(timediff / second);
   default: return undefined;
  }
 }

$(function () {
   var curDate = new Date();
   var alertDate = new Date();
   alertDate.setDate(alertDate.getDate() + 
   datediff(curDate, alertDate, 'days'));

    if (alertDate.toDateString() >= curDate.toDateString()) {
                
      $("#alertMsg").dialog({
      height: 500,
      width: 650,
      modal: true
    });
   }
});
</script>

<div id="alertMsg" style="background-color: #f5fa64;" title="IMPORTANT NOTIFICATION!!">

ATTENTION!!</h2>
This is a custom alert that will continue to display until the current date time is greater or equal to 
            the current date time.
