Re: FLASH: begging for help: Publishing and mailto problems

[John Dowdell]

It's a regular topic on the lists that "mailto:" URLs are supported by

some-but-not-all browsers. You can't control whether your visitor has a

working emailer connected to their browser. That's why people usually use

serverside emailers when universality is desired.


(For an example, see FormMail at http://www.worldwidemart.com/scripting/ ,

and if you'll be sending multi-paragraph messages then you may wish to read

some of the threads already here in this mailing list.)


I don't know how you're viewing or creating your published file so can't

venture a useful guess on the second, regrets. Best advice at that level of

detail is to try changing *anything*, to see if the symptom changes. (If I

knew offhand of a plausible way to achieve "publish to black" then I'd

suggest that that's what you might be doing, but I haven't been to that

place yet myself, sorry.)
