Hi guys,

 

Sorry to ask a ridiculous question. I have tried to find the answer but not having much luck out there.

I am putting a "Contact" link on a website for my client. And obviously I know how to create this so that the default email client opens this up with the email address added.

However, I have noticed from other websites that by clicking this link it not only fills out the email address but the subject line too?

 

Bearing in mind I am using Dreamweaver so putting the basic link with email address is simple. But because I plan on putting this CONTACT link on many different parts of the site. The subject line being filled out will just add a little more personal feel for the target audience.

 

Many thanks for any help and advice anyone can give in advance!

If you want the emails that the client receives to include a subject line then use the following code:-

 

<form action="mailto:your-name@hotmail.com?subject=Put the email subject here" method="post">...........</form>

I knew it was something ridiculously simple, I just couldn't think of it at all (damn this man flu!!!).

 

Many thanks Wickham for the fast response

Yeah, sometimes it's simple, but you have to know it! Thanks for the +1
