Mailto: Equivalent?
- Thread starter NevG
- Start date
It's virtually the same thing in Flash. Try something like this attached to a button...
on(release){
getURL("mailto:whoever@wherever.com",_blank,"GET"
;
}
this opens up the user's mail application. If you want to be really helpful you can fill in the subject line to save the user having to type. Just append the subject to the mailto string like this...
"mailto:whoever@wherever.com&subject=whatever"
"whatever" pops up in the subject line.
You can also use the loadVariables command to do this.
