line terminators displaying

[Michael W]

I am using a mailto link on a site like:

mailto:[email protected]?subject=This%20is%20a%20nice%20subject&body=For%20your%20information:%0d%0aAnother%20line%20here%0d%0a%0d%0a%0d%0a%0d%0aMore%20information%20here%0d%0a%0d%0a

As you can see there are line breaks represented by %0a%0a code. Thes work
ok in my outlook - that is when I click on the link a new mail window open
with the email to, subject and body shown correctly.

However, when my client clicks on the link, they see two non-alphanumeric
characters where the line breaks should be.

Any ideas why this may be? Is this a set up issue?

Thanks,

Mike

What version of Internet Explorer and Outlook is your client using?
I'm unsure exactly as they are a big company, but it will be IE6 and a
recent Outlook - I am trying to get a more accurate answer from them.

Are there issues like this for different versions?

Thanks,

Mike

differnces in setup

The closest I can get to a version number is: "they are using office 2000
mostly".

Does this help at all?

Thanks,

Mike
