Hello !


I propose to the user a list of several pdf files.
I'd like him to be able to choice some of them and add all as attachment to a "new mail" window (Outlook or N. Communicator).

Is it possible ?

If not, is it possible to copy the navigator action :
"File>Send>page by e-mail ????

Thanks a lot for your answers

interesting,...

you can use server side programming languages and create a form that allows several attachements and then using your server side script forward those attachments as well as mail message to any email address

And I know how to do that. I juste wandered if it was possible to have a link between the web appli. and the Windows and Netscape mail boxes.

I searched the answer everywhere yesterday, and, unfortunatly, I found that it was quite impossible because the mail box is on the client-side and not server-side.

I thought it was possible because in VB, Outlook can be used. I just have forgotten that the VBA (for example) is used on client-side.

Using Javascript is an other problem, open the client-side mail window is really easy, but attach some documents to this window is impossible because they are on the server-side.

In the same time, when you want to send a page to a e-mail, using the navigator toolbar, it's possible. So,a way to do that does exist. But I don't know how to use this way in my application.
