CCS + ASP
I'm trying to add <a href=mailto on a page with the To, Subject, and Body
taken from a database.
Getting the info from the db is no problem.
I have a label on the page and in the before show event I add the following
code.
Dim str, mailto, mailsubject, mailbody
mailto = "example@example.com"
mailsubject = "Just a test"
mailbody = "This is the body"
str = "<a href=mailto:" & mailto & "?Subject=" & mailsubject & "&Body=" &
mailbody & "><img tabindex=0 height=19 alt=Just a test hspace=0
src=images/icon_email_18.gif width=19 border=0></a>"
EventCaller.Value = str
This works perfectly if I remove the spaces from between the words in the
mailsubject and mailbody but if I leave the spaces the subject line shows as
Just only
I have tried playing about with CCToHTML and CCToURL without any success.
Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks

Hi Brian,
Please try the following:
str = "<a href=""mailto:" & Server.URLEncode(mailto) & "?Subject=" &
Server.URLEncode(mailsubject) & "&Body=" & _
Server.URLEncode(mailbody) & """><img tabindex=""0"" height=""19""
alt=""Just a test"" hspace=""0""" & _
"src=""images/icon_email_18.gif"" width=""19"" border=""0""></a>"

What I have done and works very effectively is to modify the HTML code where
the href line is and manually insert mailto: just before the {fieldname} so
it looks soemthing like this:
<a href="mailto:{emailfield}"...
Hope this helps!

Thanks Alex
I had tried something similar using CCToURL.
Your code makes the mailsubject = Just+a+test and the mailbody =
This+is+the+body
I tried your code again but substituting Server.HTMLEncode for
Server.URLEncode
It now works, mailsubject = Just a test and the mailbody = This is the body

Thanks for the suggestion Ken
Alex's code, slightly modified, worked for me.
I'll try your method as well and see which is the easiest to use as I need
to add this to a few pages.
