I'm taking the contents of my form and stuffing that data into the body of an email (all the work is done on the client side). It all works just fine with Outlook and Outlook Express, but when I test it in AOL, the newline characters either cause a problem so that the email doesnt come up properly (it generates error messages within AOL) or they just dont work at all, and all my data is run together with no line breaks.
Any ideas?
I've tried every combination I can think of. Most of which works in Outlook, none of which works in AOHell.

In conjunction with the other thread I just started about AOHell email ....
Is there a way to query the client system to find out which email program is being used?

The code is too large for this reply window. I notice an 'attach file' option below, but it doesnt appear to be set up for html. What now?

Ok, this problem just got even weirder.
I used another persons laptop to run my HTML and Javascript code. The 'body' of the email thats created on his machine looks completely different, even though the email application is exactly the same (either Outlook or Outlook Express).
Instead of seeing a body section thats been defined completely by me, now I see nothing but name/value pairs, for every single <input> or <select> statement on my form.
Any thoughts?
