Ok, we've all seen the tag to open a new mail message with a specified e-mail address ... what's the limitation to this? Simple, you can't modify the subject and body unless you make them a single string of text with no spaces. Javascript is your way around this limitation. Small code, simple to impliment and use.
only works in browsers that support javascript (not much of a limitation).
