Subject field auto populated

[3112005]

I have job postings that pull from a db on my website and when you click the email link for a particular job it populates the subject field with it's job code.

For some reason some people are getting some jargen in the subject field like this...

Subject: Job Code: 992

When it should look like this...

Subject: Job Code: 992

I guess some browsers or MS Outlook reads the code differently than other. Is there a way to correct this so it works for all?

Response.Write("<B>Apply:</B> Send an e-mail to <A HREF=mailto:" & rsUserSpec("EMailAddress") & "?subject=Job&nbsp;Code:&nbsp;" & rsNewsItems("JobCode") & ">" & rsUserSpec("FirstName") & " " & rsUserSpec("LastName") & "</A>" & "<BR>")
		Response.Write("<img src=""../shim.gif"" width=""10"" height=""10""> </td>")

Use %20 instead of  - it works in Firefox and in IE.

Spaces in URLs are represented by %20, whilst in html it is   (just to confuse us!)



A computer always does what you tell it to, but rarely does what you want it to.....
