@dotTee_comSep 12.2005 — Hi,

This can be done in a html, flash, php, java, etc.

below is just 1 common solution :

In a HTML form, you will need a field to accept the recipient's e-mail address and the "mailto:" command. The e-mail content will be your "website URL".



Cheers

@felgallSep 12.2005 — Never use mailto: on a web page. The only type of access that is guaranteed to work in with such code are spam spiders.

The only way to set up a contact form that works properly is to use a server side script to generate the email.

Success!
