Oct 17.2005

Hi out there.
I’m a beginner within programming html.
With mailto: it is possible to send an email from within html but
.. how can I populate the body with data created inside
tags <vbscript …. code … vbscript>

Within the script I get e.g. the IP-address and name of the
machine and I want to get these values into the body text
of the email.

Please help.

@candelbcOct 17.2005 — My recommendation would be to use a Server Side Scripting like PHP or ASP and an HTML form so you can control what can and can't be on your email.

But... I believe this is what you are looking for with the MAILTO line:

mailto:[email protected]?Subject=Here%20is%20your%20sign&body=This%20is%20Body%20Text.

Hope this is what you are looking for.

@felgallOct 17.2005 — mailto only works

  • 1. if the person has a separate email program installed on their computer (many people don't) or


  • 2. to provide spammers with your email address so they can send you lots of spam.
    • ×

    Success!
