Is there a way to format php sendmail without it being in a form just a simple email address in an anchor? Thanks, > It's bad for two reasons. First of all, it requires the user to use their own email program. Many users out there only use webmail from Yahoo, GMail or similar, and don't have a separate email program. Worse, is it displays your email address on the internet, to be easily harvested by spammers. Related note: I'll never forget the time when, during a several-day power outage, I took my laptop to the local library to use their WiFi. I found they had the usual POP3, IMAP, etc. ports blocked so I couldn't fetch email. I mentioned it to the person next to me (who was doing the same thing). A lady overheard our conversation and said she had no problem getting her email. But all she knew was Yahoo mail, and had no concept of another email program - even MS Outlook. -- ================== Remove the "x" from my email address Jerry Stuckle JDS Computer Training Corp. jstucklex@attglobal.net ==================
