javascript mail

Is it possible that I click on a button and text in 'Textbox' automatically reaches my mailbox. Without OUTLOOK EXPRESS intervention.

If you mean send an e-mail, not without server-side code. It is extremely easy to do with php, however. If your server supports it, that is what I would suggest...

Thanks a lot for replying.

As I dont know PHP.
Is it possible mail without intervention of outlook in javascript.
I have a text box if I click a button a mail should reach in my inbox. Please help.
Thanx.

No, you can't do it without server-side code. If your server supports PHP, however, try taking a look at the attached code. It is a simple mail script. Upload both of the files into the same directory and try running index.htm and see what you think. If you want it modified and can't figure out how, let me know and I would be happy to help. ;)

Adam, (anyone!),

I have a client that hates the way her catalog request form looks, when they land in her email box. Is there a way (Java?) to make them easier to read and therefore cut and paste into her address book?

I don't think there is a way to do that with JavaScript, but you can do it with server-side code. Are you using a form handler or just a mailto? You would be better off using a form handler if you aren't...

[bgcole]

I'm using a "mailto"

So a "formhandler" will format how the submitted form looks when it lands in someone's email box?

That would be very cool.

Yes, a form handler could format the e-mail for you. You can find all kinds of free ones... Or, if you can't find one that formats the e-mail right, you could custom make one. If you want to custom make one, I would be happy to help. ;)

Thanks Adam, I'll take a shot at it and let you know how it turns out -- gonna call it a day
