IE8 mailto: does not work - help

Having trouble getting the mailto: to work in IE8 (works fine in chrome)

<form action="mailto:admin@example.com&subject=testEmail" enctype="text/plain" method="post">
<table>
<tr>
 <td><img id="content" alt="" height="238" src="images/notion_form_content.png" width="540" /></td>
 <td>

  <input class="editor-input" name="License" type="text" value="TeamPulse License"/><br/>
  <input class="editor-input" name="Name" type="text" value="Name" /><br/>
  <input class="editor-input" name="Email" type="text" value="Email" /><br/>
  <input class="editor-input" name="Company" type="text" value="Company"/><br/>
  <input class="button" type="submit" val开发者_运维问答ue=""/>  
 </td>
</tr>

</table>

</form >

method="post" creates the body with the input names, so the body looks like this

License=MyLicense

Name=Joe

Email=email@email.com

Company=ACME

This works great in Chrome, but no in IE8 - (Outlook or email client does not launch)

If I do method="get", the email client is launched in IE8 (and chrome) but the body is empty

Your action is wrong. Use a ? to start the mailto params, not a &. So replace it with this:

mailto:admin@example.com?subject=testEmail

Switch the & to a ?

mailto:admin@example.co?subject=testEmail&body=This is the body text

The & means you are adding extra arguments
