    Adding pre-filled subject title to email link -Dreamweaver

    How do I programme an e-mail link from a webpage to make it open up in the viewers mail client with a subject heading using Dreamweaver 4 ?

    eg I wanted to put "e-mail xyz@xyz.com" but with the Subject line on the email pre-filled to ''In reply to the advert on MY SITE.com''
    What would I put in the properties box - apart from mailto:xyz@xyz.com ?

    A better solution would be to visit the DWteam site and get the free php mail extention providing you have php enabled webspace. Mail addresses under mailto: are heavily harvested by spammers.

    That's very true php~pro! (unfortunately!)

    bmnobbs - if you haven't got a PHP enabled site, you can always try some of the techniques illustrated in this Spam prevention tip thread in Web Programming.

    Also you could use ASCII under the mailto: Convert the email address with a little JavaScript.
