FF10 Mailto links to gmail no longer populate email address, subject, or body.

I click a mailto link and this same link (craigslist links) has always populated email address, subject, and body. Now it does not do any of that. Anyone know what the problem might be?

thanks for checking! after numerous tests, i've realized that it must be because i have gmail set as my default email client. so... although gmail recognizes html text links, flash not so much. at least i can stop driving myself crazy with the flash file!

  • Using variables to populate Email Address, Subject, and Body

    I am trying to setup a for to alert contractor when their service calls are completed. I would like to use the email address, Subject, and body from fields on the PDF form.
    On the Button I am using the following Click / Javascript
    var myDoc = event.target;
    var rEmail = CuEmail.rawValue;
    var rSubject = EmailSubject.rawValue;
    var rBody = DescribeProblem.rawValue;
    myDoc.mailDoc(
    false,
    rEmail, "", "",
    rSubject, "", "",
    rBody, "", "",
    Nothing happens when I click the button with this code. But, if I drop the last comma from:
    rBody, "", "",
    It will send the email with the correct email address and it will include the subject like I want it. It will just not populate the body section of the email.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I had a similar requirement and but took a different approach for a request/reply model. There are two fields on the form that the request fills in that directs how the submit button will work for the responder...
    RequestFileType (This can be PDF, XML, or XDP)
    RequestDestination ( This the URL, FTP site or email)
    Here is the script that I run on the Presubmit event for the form when it initializes.
    MaterialCompositionInformationDistribution.RoHSpage2.RoHSDirective.SubmitMCDFormButton.#ev ent.#submit.target = MaterialCompositionInformationDistribution.RoHSpage1.RequestInformation.RequestDestinatio n.rawValue;
    MaterialCompositionInformationDistribution.RoHSpage2.RoHSDirective.SubmitMCDFormButton.#ev ent.#submit.format = MaterialCompositionInformationDistribution.RoHSpage1.RequestInformation.RequestFileType.r awValue;
    What it does is poke values into the submit button basically. To send to an email address. you enter mailto:[email protected] or to post to a servlet you would enter http://www.domain.com/foobarservlet

  • Firefox 5 doesnt seem to let me open mailto links in gmail. I am using a mac on snow leapord.

    Further more I have gone into preferences and set to Mailto application to be gmail and it still dosen't work. Any suggestions.

    I have the same problem with mailto links and Gmail. I have tested the specified link (https://mail.google.com/mail/?extsrc=mailto&url=%s) manually and it works fine. The same link invoked with FF5 fails and no error message is displayed. This was definitely working in previous version of FF. Don't know of anything else that has changed. I am a Windows Vista user.

  • How do I "link" an email address in the body of an email?

    I know how to link a web url, but I cannot find a way to link an email address in the body of an email. I want the recipient of my email to be able to click on the email address that is displayed in my message and have it open a new email to that address on their computer like I have done in every other mail software. Thanks in advance for your help.

    Highlight some text in the message body, Insert/Link (Ctrl-L), enter mailto:[email protected] in the Link Location box.

  • Mailto: links no longer opening email address

    hi there,
    something seems to have happened and i'm trying to troubleshoot whether this is a flash problem, a browser configuration problem, or what... but the simple "mailto:" function for email addresses that i used to use all of the time, no longer works. here's a sample page: http://www.veronicamarch.com/ if you click on "contact" and then click one of the mail addresses, nothing happens. i'm using adobe flash CS6, and the actionscript code that i have in on a button symbol is as follows:
    on (release) {
      getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
    very simple. it used to work ALL. THE. TIME. not sure what the problem is now, any insight? much appreciated.
    thanks,
    denise

  • How do you bulk populate email address in OD?

    I have a thousand or so current users in our OD and want to populate their email address (it doesn;t seem to get done on creation)
    Email addresses are needed for auto emails in collab services
    I don't know how to take a, say, csv file of user short names and related email addresses and have the records updated
    Any ideas?

    The email address(es) itself will be created automatically and will be based on the users shortname(s) when email is enabled for that account. However I suspect you are referring to the email address field on the Info tab in Workgroup Manager.
    I did quite some time ago write a utility that amongst other things did auto-fill this field based either on the users fullname or shortname fields. However it broke when Mac OS X 10.5 was released. (It would be I am sure be fixable.)
    My utility was basically a GUI front-end to the Unix command-line tool 'ldapmodify', the scenario you would need to follow would be to get a list of user accounts, specifically their shortnames, and then have a script that for each one executes an appropriate ldapmodify command. You would be basically 'modifying' the ldap field 'EMailAddress' and setting it to the appropriate value.
    You can run 'man ldapmodify' in the Terminal.app to get more details on how to use this command.
    For those unaware, Apple's Open Directory is based on OpenLDAP which in turn uses LDAP and hence it is possible to access and modify many fields in Open Directory via generic LDAP commands. It is similarly possible to link other server software to via standard LDAP to Open Directory to authenticate users.

  • I forgot my password for my account and no longer have email address associated with it

    I used to have an id for itunes that was associated with my old email.  I no longer have the old email and I cannot access my music that was associated with that account.  I tried to change the password but I am not able to.  for some reason when I put my birthdate in it tells me that it is the wrong birthdate.  What can I do?

    Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address (you shouldn't need to verify the old account).  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I have just bought a ipad and  cant get the email link to work that verifies my email address, any idea?

        I have just bought a ipad and the link that has been sent to my email acount will not work when i try to verify the email address, i have been sent the link 3 times by apple and none of them work. any Ideas?

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home (bottom centre) and Sleep/Wake (top right edge) buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

  • I have changed my itunes account email address but apps linked to itunes have not updated email address on iphone 4

    I have changed my itunes account email address but apps linked to itunes have not updated to the new email address on iphone 4

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

  • I'm using a Mac OS X (10.9.2) Mtn. Lion (converted to Mavericks) and use Safari for Gmail, my long time email program. Lately I almost cannot use Gmail at all. "Missing Files", "Errors", etc, etc, and can only use it in Basic HTML. HELP!

    I have no idea if the problem is with Safari or with the Gmail files.  I get the msg. "Error' over and over and often "you may have entered the address wrong" (when I KNOW I HAVE NOT) and other msgs. which I do not remember at this time. I'm having to use ''Basic HTML" and that seems to be OK - tho it is insufficient. The "Mail" app in OS X works fine but I cannot tolerate the format and must solve this dilemma. Any suggestions?  I've read the "related issues" section and have not found anything closely related to this issue and would appreciate any suggestions.
    Thanks tons.

  • How can I delete a no-longer-valid email address from iPhone's Mail?

    My son has changed his email address, and I have made the changes in the Adressbook (they sync correctly via MobileMe). But his old email address continues to pop up in the Mail application. I know how to delete this from the desktop's Mail application, but don't know how to do this on the iPhone.
    Any suggestions/pointers? Thanks in advance. Cheers, Veit

    The only way to remove this data from your phone is to restore the phone as a "new" device, & not from a backup. Of course, if you do this you will lose all saved data & have to sync back your itunes content. Some view this as a feature, others a PIA. You need to decide for yourself if it's worth going through restoring as new or just living with it. You can leave feedback here:
