Can anyone tell me how to create a dynamic email link with a subject (or body) from a value in a mysql database?

I am using a DWMX extension to encode the mailto link which comes out either as:


<!-- Begin
document.write('<a href=\"mailto:me'+ '@' + 'mydomain.co.uk?Subject=dynamic%20subject\">');
document.write('email</a>');
// End -->


or encoded as:

<a href="mailto:me@mydomain.co.uk?Subject=dynamic%20subject">email</a>

Many thanks for any suggestions

Thanks for that.

I didn't check the preview of my original post - the encoded mailto line had been de-coded in the output!

I'll send it as an image<img src="www.westcornwallhomeoffice.co.uk/encoded_email.gif" border=0>

How can I get the effect you posted but using this anti-spammer code?

many thanks for any suggestions

OK I answered my own question - just inserted the php into subject line code <b>after</b> anti-spam code was placed on page - now have dynamic email working just as I want it.<img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>
