Hi all I'm trying to create a website on the intranet at work and want to place a link that when clicked will open an email to an unknown email address (one that will change form one use to another) and have a specific file attached to that email. I have spent the past few days looking all around the web and have found conflicting information some things say that you can do it and others say that you can't.

I have been using this code...

mailto:name@domain.com?subject=requested file&attachment=""f:\test.txt""

when i do this i get it to open an email with no attachment or i get an error message that i can't recreate right now but it is something to the toon of "invaild comand line. check the switch you are using"

any help or solutions that would be great. If this can't be done with mailto can it be done another way? i'm using html and trying to open the emial in outlook 2003

thanks
Nick

Is there a way to use mailto to send an email to 2 recipients?

Is there a way to send an email and to cc someone?

Thanks so much.

Hey all,

I've never had problems with this before, but I can't figure out where I've gone wrong. I am trying to use a simple mailto action on my form, but I am not receiving any email to a number of email addresses (which i have been trying one at a time ). I have checked my spam folders/filters.

Any help would be appreciated. Here is the code (with my email address removed) - I have not really done any formatting:

Code:

<form method="post" action="mailto:me@me.com">
Name: <input type="text" name="Name" size="20"><br>
Email: <input type="text" name="email" size="20"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

Thank you for your time!

Hi, I have recently got a book on HTML and XHTML, and I was looking at forms. I would like a form to send the info to my e-mail: Rautoner@hotmail.co.uk , but whenever I try it, it asks if I would like to send it / security warning (which I don't want) and then it opens the url: mailto:Rautoner@hotmail.co.uk (which is wrong). Can anybody fix this?
Code:

<form action="mailto:Rautoner@hotmail.co.uk" method="post">
Name:<input type="text" name="Name">
Age:<input type="text" name="Age">
<input type="submit" value="Send">
</form>

So I understand that HTML Mailto forms don't work unless they go through the CGI Script directory of my server first. I called my server to ask them... And they definitely didn't understand what I was asking.

Is there a way I can talk to them about how to get this HTML mailto form working properly without using HTML language? Since they pretty much don't understand it, anyway. Or is there a way I can find that information online? I don't see why they didn't understand... It says right in the package I bought for my domain that there is a CGI directory included.

Hi Guys,

The links on my page automatically open the persons default web client, which is usually set to Outlook Express. Most people don't change their settings to use their preferred client, such as gmail or hotmail, when opening links so I was wondering is there a way of getting around this such as a code that will open up gmail or other clients.

Thanks

HTML Code:

<center><a href="mailto:me@myemail.com?subject=Hello World&body=Hi, How are you?"><img src="myimage.jpg" border="0" alt="Barry's Tea Me"></a>
</center>

Hi there,

I searched online for instructions on how to set the From field of an email from the mailto hyperlink, but there is nothing out there. Is it simply not possible?

Thanks,
Emmi

<h3>This form sends an e-mail to W3Schools.</h3>

Hi, I am building a webpage with the mailto button to send mail to another person, it's working but is there a way to know if the user click send or close the mailto screen?

I'm trying to make a form that a person can fill out. When they click submit, it will send what they wrote to me in a e-mail.

This is what I have:
Code:

<form action = "MAILTO:E-mail" method = "post" enctype = "text/plain">

alkdsjflasj

alsdjflasdjf
a;lkdfalsdj
</form>
<input type = "submit">

What I dont like that this does, is it opens the microsoft outlook express. I want it to send me the form information without opening outlook express.

I would like it to send the form to my e-mail, and also redirect them to a different page.

I have no idea on how to create a mailto form. I want the user to be able to send information to me, and I want an automated, automatic reply to be sent back to them. I am not looking for anyone to do it for me. Just tell me where I can read up on it.

Heya Guys,

I am new to web creation and i am using Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 to create my websites. I have got a hot spot on a webpage and i want to use mailto to create a new e-mail when the hotspot is clicked on. I have figured out how to get the e-mail to open using the following html (which dreamweaver has created based on the link i typed in):

<area shape="rect" coords="573,154,633,175" href="mailto:frosty16@hotmail.co.uk" />

However i was wondering what i had to do to have something come up in the subject field as well

Can anyone help?
