Thanks for your comments Sarah, Robert, Jacque and, as usual, to Kenji for his examples.
I thought I would put up a page with some random examples of how such things might be accomplished but got stuck on the sending mail. I have used examples from Sarah's site for another application on my own site but I thought I could put something like this in a button and have it work. This fails. Any hints? get shell("echo -e" && "mymessage" && "| mail -s" && "thesubject" && "mym...@gmail.com" && "-- -f" && "mym...@gmail.com" Thanks Ron BTW - revspeaks works on my test page simply using the script from the Documents example scripts. I hope to post the page soon once I get this mail thing worked out. On Sep 10, 2009, at 10:13 AM, Judy Perry wrote: I had been wondering the same thing as Ron...
