problem with that is that if they haven't configured their email client
correctly in their browser (at least have of the clusers i've talked to have
not), it won't work well.

Subject: Re: Email this page to a friend....
if you don't want to add special credits and/or details to this "tell a
friend" message
I would recommened using the mailto: method.
it's easy, reliable and will pop up the user's prefarble e-mail client
(where he can select
his contacts much easier!!)
in cf, you can create something like this: (I forgot the actual CGI
variables, check them out)
<cfset mailto="?subject=check this
out&body=#CGI.template_name##CGI.template_params#">
and then, provide a link like this:
<cfoutput><a href="mailto:#mailto#";>share with a friend</cfoutput>
get a better example here:

Thanks,
Michael
