mailto link

[Paul M]

Hi
I created a mailto link for a forgotten password( Crude I know). I have
managed to set the subject line to please send me my password but I would
like the body of the email to list the information we need to send the
password ie. name and such.
Is there a way that text can be added to the email with instructions
Best wishes

PS if there is a better way that users can have there password sent
automaticaly that would be even better

Do the following:

mailto:[email protected]?subject=Forgotten password&body=Please enter
additional here

If you want automation you'll have to write a program to do it (eg .php or
..cgi)

Thanks Denis
You will have to walk me through this one. should there be a space between
forgotten and password

If you are going to use that approach (unsupported by all ISPs - like aol) there should be no spaces

Use %20 to replace all spaces after the ?

IMHO
send them to a form to fill out to send to you w/ their info when they need a password
