Hi.

I have a link on my website that has a "mailto:" funtion, pretty simple, works like a dream, this "mailto:" uses php to construct the subject, e.g pulls the job title and reference from the database.

The only problem i have is a singulkar dash is being turned into glyphs and i have no idea how to get rid of it.

Any help would be great

Many Thanks

could you post an example of the html that generates the error?

This is the code;
<a href='mailto:info@veritaspartners.co.uk?subject=".$title." Job Ref:".$jobref."&body=Please find attached my C.V and references to the above role.'>click to respond</a>

This is the result;

Regional Account Manager – Independents    Job Ref:438/4v

I have accounted for the 2 'A' before Job ref but its '–' this should be a dash
