How do I create an action command to link a button to send e-mail with? I can create a get url command to bring up a web page, but how do i bring up the email window?
 
If you want to use your own form and send it as an e-mail, you'll need some server side script.
If you just want to open up the user's default e-mail application, then you would use mailto: as:
Code:
on(press){
getURL ("mailto:youraddress@yourserver.com");
Please note you could also fill in the subject or the body's message, but that you'll have to rely on the user to actually send it to ya! There's no way of having a mailto: automatically sent, for that you'd have to use a server side script.
