Javascript mailto:

[dannymm]

Hi!
can some one tell me how to evoke any mail client(eg:outlook express) through javascript:

eg: <a href="mailto:[e-mail]">Mail Danny</a>
when i click on the above link my outlook express pops up ...

i want to do the same when i click on a radio button ...
is it possible to do that ....

thanks in advance ...

your outlook pops up because your browser knows it should open "mailto:" links using your mail client.

You could try writing a function that will open a mailto: url when a radiobutton is selected. However I would not do that if you have more than one radiobutton to choose from.

how will i open a mailto:url using javascript
is it window.open("mailto:emailid","blah ...");

(i have only one radio button to choose ..)

this should work :

<input type=radio onClick="location.href='mailto:[e-mail]';">
