HTML - Mailto - Open With Pre-populated Fields
I didn't know how to title this sorry, I did a search and there was plenty on the mailto tag, but I just need something very simple done (I'm hoping its simple)
So basically this is my code: Code: <a href="mailto:technical.support%40lk-electronics%2ecom? subject=Missing Page/URL &body=Webpage Url error occured from: -enter web address here- %0A%0A If you have any additional comments to add, do so below the line%0A%0A Thank You! and sorry for the inconvenience%0A%0A LK Electronics%0A%0A">here</a> All I want is it to have a horizontal line in it after LK electronics, and upon searching I realized that you can't insert html, well you can but if the person's mail client doesn't have html enabled, then all they're going to see is my html tags, is there a way to add in a line? The reason I'm trying to accomplish this, is basically it will all be pre-populated and they will enter the url the error occurred on, and if they have any additional comments I'd like a line separating all the pre-populated stuff. Similar Tutorialshi guys, im new here, and by no means a web designer/coder. however i do dabble in some HTML to save time & money. at present, customers sign up on our website, the form sends that data to our database. (for this we use the pure360.com API) upon submission, a trigger email is sent to that customers email with a voucher, the voucher says to Ryan (ryan@email.com) etc. which is fine. however we would prefer it to be online instead of via email. so customers sign up, data is sent from pure360 form to our database then the success URL shows the voucher on screen with their data pre populated into the fields. could anybody help me with the code to do this? i have attached the basic signup form coding. thanks in advance, Ryan Hello, I am trying to create a page where the user can select four of their best skills and put in their past experience (in years) in previously defined boxes and have that automatically update the "results." But, i need the results to be filterable to match the top three skills exactly. So i put in skils A,B,C,D and i get results of jobs that "match" A,B,C. I have created a javascript for show/hide but i dont know how to add this updatable/filterable content. Here is a demo of my page Quote: <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- function experience(element_id) { var results = document.getElementById(element_id + "_Results"); var element = document.getElementById(element_id); results.value = element.value; } </script> <script> function showhide(id){ if (document.getElementById){ obj = document.getElementById(id); if (obj.style.display == "none"){ obj.style.display = ""; } else { obj.style.display = "none"; } } } </script> <title></title> </head> <body> <form name="compass"> <table border="1" width="100%"> <tr> <td colspan="2">Top

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? Hi, I reciently built a site where I included a mailto: link. I placed it in my code using the dropdown menu in Dreamweaver. I have never used the dropdown before and this time the link doesn't work. Can any one tell me why? Here is a link to the site, www.yatchstuff.com see the contact page. Thank you in advance. Quicpic ok. this is my code Code: <html> <body> <h3>This form sends an e-mail to W3Schools.</h3> <form action="MAILTO:(?)" method="post" enctype="text/plain"> Contact:<br /> <form action=""> <select name="names"> <option value="***@hotmail.com">Trevor</option> <option value="***@hotmail.com">Nick</option> <option value="***@hotmail.com">Sam</option> </select> </form> <br/> Name:<br /> <input type="text" name="name" value="your name" size="30" /> <br /> Your e-mail:<br /> <input type="text" name="mail" value="your e-mail" size="30" /> <br /> Comment:<br /> <input type="text" name="comment" value="your comment" size="40" /> <br /><br /> <input type="submit" value="Send" /> <input type="reset" value="Reset" /> </form> </body> </html> as you can see i am trying to send a email to the three adresses though a drop down menu. the (?) is where im not sure what to put. any ideas? 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 Can I make it so that there is a text box and when someone enters something into the textbox and submit it, it will mail to my email..
