Hi!<br />
<br />
I got a problem with mailto. I want to put html code in the body part like this:<br />
<br />
"mailto:[email protected]?body=<html><head>.....</html>"<br />
<br />
As long as I keep the string following body= under 64 characters long it works perfectly, but if it gets longer my mail client interprets it as plain text and not html.<br />
<br />
Is there a good reason why this is happening and is there a solution so it will work for longer strings as well?<br />
<br />
I am using Outlook Express.<br />
<br />
I hope someone can help.
<br />

- Pfaff<!--content-->using the mailto: tag you have no control over the email. if you want html emial than you have to use a serverside language like asp, cgi, php.<!--content-->Thanks for the reply!<br />
<br />
I would of course have used serverside scripting if it had been availabel on the server I'm using. But I'm afraid it's not.<br />
<br />
Still I don't understand why mailto does exactly what I want it to do when the body string is under 64 characters long, but not ehen it is longer.<br />
