Mail.app help

[Satcomer]

I am a little lost on this one. I have figured out how to send links (javascript:t=document.title;x=(window.location);window.location='mailto:?Subject='+t+'&Body='+t+'%20%20'+x+'%20 - then save it to your Safari Bookmarks bar) to Mail and also send a TinyURL to Mail.app. The thing I am trying to figure out is how to send url links like this: MacOSX.com? I don't want to send the URL the long form like this: http://www.macosx.com/.

If anyone knows a script or hack I would like to hear it.

You need to adjust your script to send a standard HTML link. Problem with that is anyone not using a HTML based program will receive a nasty looking line of 'junk'.

<a href="http://www.macosx.com">Macosx.com</a>

On a side note, here's how my send to e-mail bookmark link looks:

javascript:location.href='mailto:?SUBJECT='+document.title+'&BODY='+escape(location.href)

Changed to send a HTML Link:

javascript:location.href='mailto:?SUBJECT='+document.title+'&BODY='+escape('<a%20href="'+location.href+'">'+document.title+'</a>')

That'll format the link as a HTML link with the display text set as the page title. The subject of the e-mail is the page title.

javascript:location.href='mailto:?SUBJECT=Check%20out%20this%20link&BODY='+escape('<a%20href="'+location.href+'">'+document.title+'</a>')

That'll format the link as a HTML link with the display text set as the page title. The subject of the e-mail is Check out this link.

Ahh, the lightbulb goes off in my head. Thanks.

Simpler:
Use Netscape. It's mail app. has that feature built in. (I don't use it even though it's a great feature.)
