Add email page link button to a webpage

I'm adding social media buttons to my website. Facebook like, Twitter tweet etc buttons were very easy.

However I also need an email the page (or rather a link to the page) button. I have trawled the internet but cannot find a simple and good implementation.

Ideally I'd like to be able to copy some reliable code, and have the button look in the same style as the ones on this page: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6920023/testbuttons.html

If anyone has done this before I would be very glad to hear from you :)

Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • As far as i know, you will have to use Mailto: apart from doing some deep Gmail, Yahoo and Hotmail API integration. That's about as good as your going to get.

    You can dynamically fill out subject, body, cc fields etc using javascript/php (or whatever you are using)
