Hello Astan,
Your code executes without error for me on Win98 (!) with Python 2.5 or
XP with Python 2.6.
It would help people to help you if you could provide the *exact* console
output from when you try to execute the code, *including* the traceback.
That way we can work out which line of code is hitting the exception.
Cheers,

Hi,
My mistake. The length of body is over 1400 characters. Here is my
updated code and result:
import urllib, webbrowser, win32api
def mailto_url(to=None,subject=None,body=None,cc=None):
"""
encodes the content as a mailto link as described on
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2368.html """
url = "mailto: " + urllib.quote(to.strip(),"@,")
sep = "?"
if cc:
url+= sep + "cc=" + urllib.quote(cc,"@,")
sep = "&"
if subject:
url+= sep + "subject=" + urllib.quote(subject,"")
sep = "&"
if body:
# Also note that line breaks in the body of a message MUST be
# encoded with "%0D%0A". (RFC 2368)
body="\r\n".join(body.splitlines())
url+= sep + "body=" + urllib.quote(body,"")
sep = "&"
return url
txtTo = "t...@com.com"
txtSubject = "Test Subject"
body = "Test body"
for t in range(278):
body+="test "
txtCC = "cc_t...@com.com"
url = mailto_url(txtTo,txtSubject,body,txtCC)
#win32api.ShellExecute(0,'open',url,None,None,0)
webbrowser.open(url,new=1)
# os.startfile(url)
result:

%20test%20test%20test%20test%20test%20'
Is there some sort of limitation here? If I shorten the string, it works
fine. You're right, but I'm wondering if there is a way to go around
this limitation.
Thanks again
Cheers
Astan
