mapleleaf Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Is it possible to have an email link like mailto that prepopulates the email with some content?

ignace Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Yes. Use mailto:email1@domain,email2@domain?cc=email3@domain&bcc=email4@domain&subject=a-subject&body=some-text-body You must know that 'mailto:' is a handle that will be handled by the program that knows how to handle 'mailto:' just like your browser knows how to handle 'http:' or like irc knows how to handle 'irc:' When you use 'mailto:' you imply that your visitor has a program installed that can handle 'mailto:' and is therefor not using any web-based e-mail clients otherwise the browser won't find a handler for it and will tell the visitor that it doesn't know how to handle 'mailto:' making it obsolete for your visitor, maybe even losing the visitor as he has no proper way to contact you. The parameters you can use are ofcourse also limited to the e-mail client used by your visitor.
