How to open Outlook express from Javascript

Hi,
The requirement is to open the outlook client when clicked on some button in the web application. Also I need to pre populate the email with body of approx 3000+ characters.
Since the characters is huge i cannot use mailto:. So how to do this?

I tried this
var theApp = new ActiveXObject("Outlook.Application");
var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var subject;
var msg = "type Email message here.";
var theMailItem = theApp.CreateItem(0);
theMailItem.to = "[email protected]";
theMailItem.HTMLBody = (olook);
theMailItem.Subject = (subject);
theMailItem.display();
once the java script executes in IE, it tries to open outlook but, I am not seeing any new email page opening

Outlook Express is a separate program from Firefox, and all Firefox can do is allow you to set your home page. Customizing your home page depends on what your home page is set to.

How do i send emails with outlook express from firefox

how do i send emails with outlook express from firefox

Clicking on an email address on a webpage, opens outlook express, but does not create a new mail, which it used to. annoying as it then means cutting & pasting the details

As I said above, clicking on an email address on a webpage, opens outlook express which is my default email client. In the past it used to also open a new mail, ready for me to type the message but now it does not. It works if I load internet explorer as the browser but does not in firefox. I prefer firefox, so can someone help me resolve this. Its so annoying to have to open a new mail then cut & paste the email details.

I posted this reply elsewhere in the support forum but I'll copy it here for you, as follows....
I had the same problem. Initially thought I needed a string (code) to run the "Create new e-mail" command for Outlook but I didn't. I did a few things that eventually made it work, but I don't know for certain which one it was so here goes.
1.) Go to Control Panel and click on Internet Properties. Go to the Programs tab and double-check that Outlook Express is your default e-mail client. (This is probably for IE).
2. Close Outlook Express. Select the RUN command from the Start Menu and type the following: <msimn /reg>. Only type the info between the brackets. Click the OK button and wait about 5 seconds. Nothing will happen on screen but the information is being silently written to the registry.
3. Open Outlook Express and go to the Tools Menu. Select Options. On the General tab, look down to the Default Messaging Programs. More than likely, the top option will say that "This application is NOT the default Mail handler" Click the button next to it that says "Make Default". This should trigger an available option in Firefox, below, if it was not already available.
4. In Firefox, go to the Tools menu. Select Options. Click on Applications. Under the column, "Content Type" look for the mailto function. In the column Action, select "Use Outlook Express (default)" if it is not already selected. "(default)" must be part of the phrase. Somehow there is code behind this option that will bring up a new e-mail in Outlook that otherwise does not work if Outlook is selected manually. (To choose Outlook manually, you will indeed have to find the string code somewhere.)

How to open an Applet from a text link in a HTML Page

Hi There
How to open an Applet from a text link
in a HTML page
For example I have a HyperLink "Open Applet"
When a user clicks that link i want to open a
Applet in a AWT Window.
How can i do this
Will any one help me?
-Ramya

u can use javascript for that
<SCRIPT language="javascript">
function loadAppNow() {
document.write("<APPLET ......></APPLET>")
</SCRIPT>
LoadApplet
this will overwrite the applet on current window
There are many good ways other than document.write to open in same window. I don't remember the syntax right now.
Plz. refer to javascript tutorial for that.
even you can insert the applet while retaining previous contents. its quite easy actually.

How to import Outlook Express WAB into TB

I copied a WAB file that was exported from Outlook Express in a Windows XP machine onto the desktop of a different computer running Windows 7 Home Premium. I then clicked on import > address book> Outlook Express file. It says done, but it never finds the WAB to import and the new address book it created is empty. Where do I need to place the old WAB file for TB to import it? Or, am I doing something else wrong?
