Welcome to Webmaster World!

Yes, it can be done in Java, but not JavaScript, which is what you are using :)
You need to use some form of server side functionality, preferably PHP/Perl/ASP... or even Java.

I see. I notice alot of programs out thier that can Email but i need one that can work with Windows.

The Java program is nie and simple that check my list to make sure everything is entered.

I tried Html format but wont work for me.

I will keep trying. I'm also reading alot of book to find the answer but still they point to a file program that will do the work for you.

Thanks for your help.

Just to be clear, you can open the default e-mail client on the user's system with JavaScript. You can even enter form field values from the HTML page as text in the e-mail body.

THanks, I will have to look that up.

I was trying to out put the webpage into a file and attach it to outlook and then let the user enter what ever he wants.

Thanks for the info

out put the webpage into a file and attach it to outlook

That can't be done for security reasons. If that's what you want to do, provide a link to a downloadable file which the user can then attach to whatever mail client he/she is using.

The people that will be using this form are smart but when it comes to Computers they in a hole new world.

Having the file save to desktop that would confuse them.

trying to make it easy

So far im at this line now.

window.location = "mailto:[e-mail]";

This will open outlook but will not attach the wegpage. Still working on it.

THanks. You guys are helping me out alot just from reading the posting.
