Just a working example how to send form e-mail with Microsoft Outlook Express (and Outlook) without starting these programs (although they will receive a warning message!):
<html> <head> <body> <script language="javascript"> functionupdate() { alert("sorry not supported"); return false; } </script> <script language="javascript1.2"><!-- function update() { document.emailForm.action = 'mailto:' + document.hiddenForm.emailAddress.value + '?SUBJECT=' + document.hiddenForm.subjectLine.value; document.emailForm.elements[' '].value += '\n\n'; document.emailForm.submit(); return false; } //--></script> <form name="hiddenForm" onSubmit="return false"> Email Address: <input type="text" name="emailAddress" value="someone@nospam.com"> <input type="hidden" name="subjectLine" value="subject description "> </form> <form name="emailForm" method="post" enctype="text/plain"> <textarea name=" "> blah blah blah :-) enter here some text some text you can even make more form elements if you want </textarea> <input type="submit" onClick="return update()"> </form> </body> </html>
