Michael, your code is correct. It is the user's default email program that
should interpret the chars and format they accordingly...
your code produces this in outlook, being sent to an the blah.cfm email:
----------------------------------------
This is a test.
I like testing
things.
This is the beginning of a
paragraph.

While 'mailto:' is a psuedo-href, it's still an HTML attribute, and as such
it will ignore your return characters. Meaning
<a href="linkch
eck.cfm?line1=1&
line2=2">link</a>
is equivalent to
<a href="linkcheck.cfm?line1=1&line2=2">link</a>
I don't think there is any way around this.

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to include body text in a <a href="mailto:....."> tag. Now I get
the body text in there but I am having trouble formatting it. For example
line breaks. I am probably going about this completely wrong, but below is
my code.
<cfset emailContent = "This is a test."&chr(13)&chr(10)&"I like testing
things."&chr(13)&chr(10)&chr(13)&chr(10)&"This is the beginning of a
paragraph.">
<cfset emailContent = URLEncodedFormat(emailContent)>
<cfoutput>
<a href="mailto:blah.cfm?subject=Test&body=#emailContent#">Test</a>
</cfoutput>
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
