Ok I know this is an easy one but I just can't remember how the hell you force a subject in the mailto command. For ex. mailto:[email protected] subject: help. I need to do this so I can identify in Outlook who my mails are coming from .Thanks

Is that what you were looking for?

Thanks a lot Chad I knew it was a simple command but I could just not get it off the tip of my tounge!!! Since this seems to be such a short conversation I thought I might as well as if anyone knows where I can find info on sending forms using the mailto: command. I have done this before successfully. Here is the prob: I have seen hundreds of pages showing me how to make a form. Now thats easy what I need to know is how to submit the damn things. I want to send them as a simple list in an e-mail but I don't want to use cgi or pearl as this confuses the hell out of me. The only problem I am having is that the forms are not attching themselves to the e-mail properly so I am recieving blank e-mails. For a closer look at my form goto: http://www.usfaz.com/members/johnny/ then go to the soopa links section. Then you will see a button called submit link.

I took a look at your code and it looks right... I could be wrong though... I haven't worked with the mailto form in quite some time. One thing I would recommend is making sure your host allows you to send e-mail from the server in this way... Make sure they will even let you send e-mail from the server.

I think that the mailto: forms is supported only by older version browsers.

There are plenty of free forms out there that auto-forward replies to you, etc. Many of then are simpicity itself to set up. Try the 'responsomatic' (forgot the URL) or www.bravenet.com
