This may be a daft question, but if I wanted to use a simple mailto, i.e Code:
<a href="mailto:joe@bloggs.co.uk"></a>
Is this wise? from a spamming point of view. I am aware of encoders out there that basically make jargon from an email address which fools the robots, am i talking rubbish or what? Basically! Is it wise to use standard mailto links or is there a better way?
What are the advantages/disadvantages of using this form submission approach as opposed to eg: Cdo, aspEmail - it appears to harness the MS standard mailto capability?:
<FORM ENCTYPE="text/plain" NAME="test" METHOD='POST'
ACTION='mailto:info@examle.com?subject=Resume' onSubmit="return
submitForm()">
I have to use mailto so the pages opens up the users default client. I need
to format the body of the email in HTML format so I can show some the text
in bold, italics and underlined? Is this possible to do? if so how?
I'm just learning ASP. I have a mailto and I have a lot of text that I want to display in the body. Is there a way to store that text in a variable & then add it to the mailto tag?
View Replies View Relatedok I have a page that displays all of the 3000+ records of people, phone numbers, and email addresses. on this page I have added a link that combines all of the e-mail addresses into one mailto: link so that we can mass notify these people of upcoming projects. the problem is that i think the link is too big for the browser to handle. the view source shows that everything is there but i cannot click the link. i have tried both IE and FireFox to no avail. The code is below just in case i have a typo or something...
sql = "Select * from people WHERE (IsNull(m_idstatus) OR m_idstatus <> 'id2') AND (m_email Like '%@%')"
...
y = 0
do while not rs.eof
If (rs("m_email") = "" OR IsNull(rs("m_email"))) Then
e_email = e_email
Else
e_email = e_email & rs("m_first_name") & " " & rs("m_last_name") & "(" & rs("m_email") & "); "
y = y + 1
End If
rs.movenext
loop
...
<a href="mailto:?bcc=<%= e_email %>">E-MAIL ALL</a> |
I have also tried changing the format of the link by adding test@test.com before the ?bcc= but get the same results on both browsers. Like I said in the beginning I assume that the link is just too big for the browser; does anyone have any ideas besides making a mail form in the page? I would prefer to stick with a mailto link so that we can keep internal Outlook features.
I have created simple .asp page and i would like to send my page as email using my outlook. is it possible to send form body as new email outlook body using mailto

I have an asp page that is pulling data from a access database. The data will always be a complete email address. I am trying to make the email address on the page a simple hyperlink that opens the default email program upon click. I cannot make it work for the life of me!

View Replies View RelatedI am developing a simple little application for a client that allows them to do an employee lookup. This small Access database contains only a few fields such as name, job, email address etc.
However, when the data is pulled from the database, I would like my ASP pages to create the email as a mailto command when pressed. I'm not sure how to go about this.

I've got an aspx page with a 'mailto' with accented characters in the

displayed correctly.

In my page, i have 6 textbox field:

We have a customer who uses utf-8 encoded websites and wants mailto-link on some websites with integrated subject/content.

I want to use the instr function, but return results from it depending on surtain functions, I can't realy explain so I'll show my example:
I have a string in wich some word I want to find might be in diffrent Capital Letters order, I want the Instr function to return all the values of the place of that word (avcourse I'll run a for and increase the starting point of the Instr func until it returns 0). The instinct thought is to use the Lcase or the Ucase functions, but in this case I don't know how to use them. In the same Idea I wanted to use the Instr Func with the trim Func, But Its realy the same principle if I just understood how to do so.

View Replies View RelatedI know the basic difference between a subroutine and a function is a
subroutine performs a task and a function performs a task and returns a
value. The Call keyword is required when using parens with subs with more
than 1 parameters. Parens around values passed are ByVal vs ByRef and is a
waste of processing if passed ByRef for no reason.
I am told there is no reason to ever use a subroutine as a function can be
used even if it doesn't return a value. While this appears to be true, is
there any reason why it's ever a bad idea to use a function, instead of a
subroutine, that doesn't return a value? Are there memory, performance,
etc. issues?
I am trying to locate information on how to call a sub within VBScript on an
ASP page but I can't locate generic information. What I want to do is
generate a page that will stay up but the information on it will change
based on a series of drop down boxes. I need the first drop down box to call
a second dropped down box based on the state that is chosen then city and so
on.

I’m trying to do something that I remember as very simple I'm trying to check that the value of a form text box is numerical using the isNaN function. The code I am using is:
<%
quantity = Request.Form("number1")

I was just wondering when using the mid function how does the assigment work when the length is longer then string itself? For example
test = mid(12345, 1, 10)
What would be the end result of test?Would it be 0000012345 or 1234500000 or 12345?
When I create a single character string
var str = "A"
'convert to ascii
num = asc(str)
Response.Write num ' 65 shows up
'when I have a whole string

num = asc(str)
'I get an error:
Invalid procedure call or argument:'asc'What can be done to fix this?
I've an array to store alphabets, in my code...in a random order. How can i use the Asc() function to get the equivalent Ascii of each alaphabaet of that array....
whenever i use ,
for i = 0 to NoOfElements
Response.write Asc("ArrayName(i)")
next
it displays 65, "NOOfElements" times (ascii of A)...on the other hand..i can't write
Response.write Asc(ArrayName(i))
since this shows some error...How can i solve this?
Depending on some situations, I or the user, need to execute a function (e.g., login, sending email, etc...) and then continue from the original place. How can I make one function to be available from any page from my site?
