155165 2003-06-26 06:42:00 Really, there is a way of doing it without server-side code, but involves opening the clients email client.

It involves many onMouseOver, onMouseOut etc javascripts to hide anything that might appear in the status bar area, specifying a name as well as an email address, if that's possible, and a new email address that forwards emails onto another account if they contain a certain subject.

Of course, the user can still access all your information there...

So sever-side is a much better method.

Yes, stu's method fires up the email client, it should be quite obvious, I've done it that way on an old website I made at the beginning of my HTML days.

Furthermore, however, I got it to the point where it created the email in the users Outbox folder, without opening their email client, and would be sent off when they next checked their emails.

155166 2003-06-26 09:45:00 Err... Yeah.. I noticed it fired up the mail client... hence the post back :-)

Im looking to see if Ihug support PHP right now.. and I'll get a script off Stu, seems easiest :-)

Unless somebody can tell me a way to do it with HTML only?
