email this page to a friend script?

[kovalik]

I have been looking for a script for a button that lets visitors "email this page to a friend". Does anyone know of a good, simple one?

Thanks very much,

Try this:


<SCRIPT>
function Mailit(form) {
document.location.href=("mailto:" + form.address.value + "?subject=A web page to see&body=I found this web page at " + document.location.href + ", which I thought you might like to see.")
return false
}
</SCRIPT>


<FORM name="Recom" onsubmit="return Mailit(Recom)">
<TABLE>
<TR><TD>Recommend this Web page to a friend</TD></TR>
<TR><TD><INPUT type="text" name="address" size="35" value="Enter Email Address">
<INPUT type="button" name="Button" onclick="Mailit(this.form)" value="Send"></TD></TR>
</TABLE>
</FORM>

I have also been seeking a "Mail this page to a friend" script.

However, I have been trying to alter it to include a preset email address in the "CC:" field so as a can be copied in with the email. (This way I will know who is referring my page.)

Unfortunately my attempts have been unsuccessful!

Can someone assist with the correct syntax that I should be using????

Cheers!

Try this, changing "yourname2@youraddress2" to suit

<SCRIPT>
function Mailit(form) {
document.location.href=("mailto:" + form.address.value + "?cc=yourname2@youraddress2&subject=A web page to see&body=I found this web page at " + document.location.href + ", which I thought you might like to see.")
return false
}
</SCRIPT>


<FORM name="Recom" onsubmit="return Mailit(Recom)">
<TABLE>
<TR><TD>Recommend this Web page to a friend</TD></TR>
<TR><TD><INPUT type="text" name="address" size="35" value="Enter Email Address">
<INPUT type="button" name="Button" onclick="Mailit(this.form)" value="Send"></TD></TR>
</TABLE>
</FORM>
