If your CF administrator is set up to handle e-mail, I would probably use
the <cfmail... tag as follows: 

   <cfquery name="myQuery">
        SELECT  productdescription, productdetails
        FROM            myTable
   </cfquery>

   <cfmail to="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" query="myQuery"
subject="Interest in
   #productdescription#">
        #productdetails#
   </cfmail>

I have used this before and it really works great.  The e-mail address can
also be dynamically populated from a query, form fields, etc.

Subject: Newbie question on mailto tag with variables (easy)


I have a dynamic page output with client products.

When they click the detail, the detail product loads of course. The  
client wants to have a graphic button, when clicked, will email the  
client the product detail in the email subject and body.

sooo, this is the typical code:

<a href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"><img  
src="images/interestproduct.gif" width="209" height="82" border="0"  
/></a>

I"m imagining something like:

<a  
href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
subject=Interest%20in%20#productdesciption#?body=#productdetails#"><img  
src="images/interestproduct.gif" width="209" height="82" border="0"  
/></a>

Does this look too wacky? its not working error says that the variables  
are undefined... but not true. do I need to put an output tag in the  
mail to ?

Sorry for such stupidity

thanks.
