Email Message Input 2

[bill1one]

Is there a way that you can input a message into an email, much in the same way you use the ?subject= to input a subject in an email link?

this should work:

<a href="mailto:me@you.com?body=here is my body text">Email</a>

[tt]a frickin' twelve-gauge, what do you think?[/tt]
[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.coryarthus.com/[/url]

That works well. Thanks. How do you get a subject too?

You can use many fields:

&cc=
&bcc=
&body=
&subject=

Hope this helps,

Just to clarify, you would append them to the url, for example:

mailto:me@you.com?cc=you@somewhereelse.com&subject=Hi&body=Hello

You'd need to make sure your URL was validly escaped, of course.

I know that this is getting quite drawn out, but what about line breaks within the subject. Is it possible?

Try using "\n".

Remember that due to URL length restrictions some browsers have, you won't be able to send very long messages this way.
