Hello everyone,

How do you code your site so that when you click an email link the subject has somethng in it? It's just a one liner - but I can't remember how to do it.

TIA!

It doesn't work in Opera, and I think one of the Netscapes.

A note... I like to URL encode my links. You can use this to URL encode your strings.

<html>
<body>

&lt;script language=javascript&gt;
<!--
function Encode() {
    document.forms.URLencode.encoded.value = escape(document.forms.URLencode.original.value); 
}
function Decode() {
    document.forms.URLdecode.decoded.value = unescape(document.forms.URLdecode.original.value); 
}
//-->
&lt;/script&gt;

<form name=URLencode onSubmit="Encode(); return false;">
original:<BR>
<textarea name="original" rows="5" cols="50"></textarea><BR>
encoded:<BR>
<textarea name="encoded" rows="5" cols="50"></textarea><BR>
<input type=button value="Encode It!" onClick="Encode()">
</form>

<form name=URLdecode onSubmit="Decode(); return false;">
original:<BR>
<textarea name="original" rows="5" cols="50"></textarea><BR>
decoded:<BR>
<textarea name="decoded" rows="5" cols="50"></textarea><BR>
<input type=button value="Encode It!" onClick="Decode()">
</form>
</body>
</html>
