Sending emails

Jul 26, 2012

Hi all

we all know

Launch new email message

var email="yourAddress@email.com";
var subject="subject line";
var body_start="How you want to begin your body.";
var mailto_link='mailto:'+email+'?subject='+subject+'&body='+body_start;
win=window.open(mailto_link,'emailWin');

This is a version of a dynamically made email body

Launch new dynamic email message

var player = GetPlayer();
var email=player.GetVar("email");
var subject="Your Subject";
var body_start=player.GetVar("notes");
var mailto_link='mailto:'+email+'?subject='+subject+'&body='+escape(body_start);
win=window.open(mailto_link,'emailWin');

* be aware, that the variables email & notes need to be defined in your project

** if you do not escape your body text, the all will be glued together
