Mailto Form "Browser Alerts Malicious"
« on: April 14, 2007, 12:42:36 AM »
Anyone know how to create a mailto Form that wont blat to the user that this is a potentially malicious operation? I want to have the ability for people to e-mail data to me from a form in my web page and I cant find a work around... Do I need to use something other than a form to avoid this IE Blat???

Also if the user does not have a local mail client installed and configured like Outlook Express, the Mailto Form is worthless ... Any suggestions on a better method for processing and sending data to me in a form like manner???

Thanks   ???

Well, if your were using some sort of server side scripting you wouldn't have to worry about the alert, keep in mind that you need a server with smtp capabilities.
