Hello there,

I have created a pop-up form which allows a user to email a friend the results of a search. I have populated the subject of the email, but I am having problems with the message - I want the message to contain a few words and a link to the original results url. How do I transfer this info in the message body of the send email event, so that the recipient is able to click on a link to the search result? I have searched the forum, but have been unable to find help on this particular problem.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

you need to encode the http link so that special characters get encoded.

Examples
space like " " becomes %20

or

"&" becomes "&"

Use Google for hints or try http://www.blooberry.com/indexdot/html/topics/urlencoding.htm
