Hi everyone,

Thanks for the help on my previous message. This is probably another simple one, but I'd like to create a link or a button within Flash MX that will, when it's mounted on the internet in HTML format, launch the e-mail program of whoever is using the site. Once the program (say, Outlook) is loaded, my return e-mail address should already be in the 'TO' bar ready for the person to type their message to me and just press send, rather than hunt for my e-mail address. I know there's a simple way of doing it in Dreamweaver, but if anyone has any idea, I'd be really grateful,

Thanks.

Alex D.
 
Forgive me this sounds a bit simple.

I Mean a simple geturl on your button the make the following url: mailto:youremail@whatever.com should work. Or am I missing the point here?

all you need is

on (release) {getURL("mailto:you@you.com?SUBJECT=Web%20Site%20Mail");
}

this will put your address in the To section and add something to the subject. for a message in the body just add it after subject.
