[PHP] email counter

2001-07-16 Thread Jack

Dear people,
I have an email link on my page like this
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]";> Big George 
and I want to know how may people click on on this particular link to keep the record, 
may be insert this record into a table as well ( but don't erally have to) Is there 
any technique at all to achieve this?

How about changing link to

 Big George 

Where mymailer.php is something like

mailto:$email"; );

?>

( Now watch me get shot down for saying something silly  )

Works, but changes the previous open window into a empty sheet
and displays "mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]";, so the old page
disappears (the user has to click the back button). I think this
solution is not really good for common usage.

Try to use javascript:


x = window.open("mailto:<?php echo $mailaddress ?>", "Site");


It's easy to combine it with PHP to count the send mails.

how about using php mail functions if you've got the support on your server


then a simple form to send the mail and you can track everything you need to

In order to do the mail counter using javascript above, how would that work?
What is "Site" for? and Does this script execute when people click on the
link to send mail or something?
