Launche mail client and add a string from a db

[mrcaveman]

Hi.

Is there a script or function that makes it possible to launche the users mail client with a string as header and string as subject that is stored in a database.

mailto() does not work, because it only handels about 260 characters.

I have tried to use

header('content-disposition: attachment; filename=name.msg')

without any luck because of an error message. Also, this function would only work with MS Outlook.

Hope anyone could help me on the way to solve my problem.

Kj.

Hi!
Thats clientsided stuff.
echo the following and call it with an javascript eventhandler that you like:

<script language=javascript>
<!--
function call_mailclient(){
window.location.href = "mailto:<?=$str_recipient ?>?cc=<?=$str_additional_recipient ?>&subject=<?str_subject ?>&body=<?=$var_body ?>";
}
//-->
</script>

and so on....
\n will be interpreted like you are used to from mail().
