location.href 1

[jumper2]

Hi Everybody,

I have a javascript where I need to handling in the location.href as E-Mail address which contains "&" charachter.

Looks like:

location.href = "mailto:user.name@test.com?body=Test&Hier comes still something";

My problem is when I get back the email then the e-mail body is broken by the '&' and therefore I can only see in the body the 'Test' as word.

Could somebody please help me out?

Try:

location.href = escape("mailto:user.name@test.com?body=Test&Hier comes still something");

Hi Lee,

I tried but it's still not.
Now I got a strange link on the URL:

"

http://localhost:8080/test/mailto:user.name@test.com?body=Test&Hier comes still something"

Any idea why is that?

Just escape the end of string that contains the characters that cause the problems. Look at what the code produced and modify it to get what you need.
