Javascript question

Hi - I am trying to write a javascript that allows learners to email notes from a Storyline course.  I found a post with an example of a similar project, and tried copying that script, but it didn't...

Hi, Shelly.

Thank you for sharing your .story file!

I looked at your project, and while I'm not super familiar with Javascript, I noticed a few lines missing from your code. The project seems to work now after the changes below:

 var player = GetPlayer();
 var email = player.GetVar("TextEntry");
 var subject="Full Item Spec Sheet";
 var thoughts1 = player.GetVar("Thoughts1");
 var thoughts2 = player.GetVar("Thoughts2");
 var thoughts3 = player.GetVar("Thoughts3");
 var body_start = thoughts1+' '+ thoughts2+' '+thoughts3;
 var mailto_link = 'mailto:' + email + '?subject=' + subject+'&body='+body_start;
 win=window.open(mailto_link,'emailWin');

I hope this helps!

Thanks so much!  I knew I was missing something small, but couldn't figure it out.  I really appreciate your help.
