KCI wants to know if a jurisdiction needs extra office copies when ordering
blue AV envelopes, and the old flash-message confirmation after submitting a
jurisdiction number was easy to miss (auto-dismissed in a few seconds).

- Implement Election Materials order-form revisions (docs/lucid *(2).pdf):
new "permanent ballot list" question, and a Yes/No/Unsure nonprofit-status
question now asked on both blue-envelope permit-ownership branches, with
a matching migration, model/repository regen, and validation updates.
- Box the /request-order form and heading in the site's form-panel style.
- Shrink the site footer.
- After request-order and order submission, redirect to / with a flash
message instead of re-rendering the form page inline.
- Skin the continuation and order-confirmation emails to match the site's
branding (logo, navy header/footer, purple accents) instead of plain
unstyled HTML.

Extract email sending into OrderMailer, answer-to-model mapping into
OrderDetailsAnswersMapper, label mapping into OrderDetailsLabels, and
generic dictionary-based field validation into core/lib.Validations.asp
(alongside a small lib.JsonResponse helper), replacing the private
helpers previously duplicated inline in OrderApiController and
RequestOrderController.
Extends the jurisdiction API cache to store JCode/Name pairs (not just
codes) and looks up the matching Name for an order's already-validated
JurisdictionNumber when rendering /order/continue. When a match is
found, the Municipality field is pre-filled and locked read-only;
otherwise it falls back to an empty, editable field so the user can
enter it manually.
- Blue AV Envelope: City of permit holder and Permit Number are now always
collected for an own-organization permit, regardless of nonprofit status -
a permit lookup using only the nonprofit authorization code doesn't work,
so the code is now additional info when nonprofit status is Yes, not a
replacement for city/permit number.
- Order confirmation email header simplified to "KCI Purple Envelope Order
Confirmation" text, dropping the site's PE logo mark and tagline.
- Replaced the IsValidJurisdictionNumber stub (previously always returned
true) with real validation against JurisdictionApiUrl, cached in
Application scope (JurisdictionCacheMinutes, default 60) since the
jurisdiction list is essentially static reference data. Falls back to
stale cached data on a refresh failure rather than blocking order
requests; fails open only when there's no cache at all.
Hit two Classic ASP gotchas along the way: Scripting.Dictionary can't be
stored in Application scope (ASP 0197, apartment-threaded COM object) -
cached a delimited string instead - and the codebase's generic aspJSON
parser took 43s to parse the ~1500-record API response, so switched to a
targeted regex extraction of just the JCode field (~1s).
Order form revision (docs/lucid "(1)" PDFs):
- Purple Envelope: reordered stock/permit questions, renamed postage-only to
state-permit-only, added colors question and blue-envelope-provider
cross-sell
- Blue Envelope: reworked permit flow with KCI-vs-own-organization
ownership and nonprofit-status branching
- Mailing Service: real per-piece pricing, new Presort Standard tier,
estimated-quantity question, fixed pickup-date list, removed the
ballot-sorting question
- Additional Items: added a special-requests field
- Added db/migrations/20260804153857_revise_order_details_columns.asp
(additive only - columns retired by the revision are left in place,
not dropped, since the table has real test data)
Tester feedback:
- Fixed "Spectrom" typo to "Spectrum" (value code + label + validation)
- Corrected First Class postage rate to $0.721/pc.
- Marked nearly every survey question required so SurveyJS blocks
page navigation on missing answers
Color picker for envelope colors:
- Replaced free-text color entry with a modal image picker sourced from
public/images/Purple_ballot_envelopes colors/*.bmp, converted to PNG
in public/images/purple-envelope-colors/ (23MB -> 245KB)
Cleanup pass:
- Removed the redundant "KCI's blue envelopes or another provider's"
question (redundant with the preceding yes/no)
- Removed the purple-envelope delivery-date picker in favor of a static
lead-time note
- Trimmed the Mailing Service page title
- Fixed the post-submission message to stop showing SurveyJS's default
"survey" wording
RouteKit Classic ASP MVC starter for the Purple Envelope election-materials
order site: request-order flow, token-based order continuation, SurveyJS
order-details form with server-side validation and a themed confirmation
email, plus the framework core, generators, and dev-only aspunit test harness.
