Question

Email with Subject line Using Lotus Notes

I have reviewed the feature to send an email on success to a internet email address. How do I include a "fixed subject line" and a "fixed body"? As an aside, our Company uses Lotus Notes as the email client. :-(

The purpose of the button is to address and populate the subject line and body with simple Text affirming that they have reviewed and understood attached material.

Subject Line: Code Of Ethics reviewed and understood
Email Body: This message will confirm my receipt, review, and understanding of the Code of Ethics ("the Code") and all amendments thereto, have reviewed it and agree to abide to all items outlined within the Code that pertain to my classification.

    Hi ImTryingToLearn

    Basically the syntax would be as follows:

    someone@somewhere.com?subject=Code%20Of%20Ethics%20reviewed%20and%20understood&body=This%20message %20will%20confirm%20my%20receipt,%20review,%20and%20understanding%20of%20the%20Code%20of%20Ethics%20("the Code")%20and%20all%20amendments%20thereto,%20have%20reviewed%20it%20and%20agree%20to%20abide%20to%20all%20items %20outlined%20within%20the%20Code%20that%20pertain%20to%20my%20classification.

    However, there is a limit to the amount of text (number of characters actually-I think it may be 255 or 256) so that may not work.

    Cheers... Rick

    Rick - I copied your suggestion and inserted into Captivate using the following steps:

    Button Creation:
    <<insert>> <<Button>>
    TYPE = Text Button
    ON SUCCESS = Execute JavaScript
    JavaScript Browse Button - inserted suggested text
    DESTINATION WINDOW = New
    CONTINUE PLAYING PROJECT = Deselected
    <<Close>>

    I tried the button in both preview and published mode, but no action takes place. I do not know code (one of the reasons I find Captivate easy to use) so can you share if any additional syntax was to be used?

    Hi there again

    I know the code I posted looks a bit odd, but you wouldn't use the JavaScript option. Instead, copy the code and paste it into the field you see where you specify the E-Mail address when you choose the "Send E-Mail" function of the button object.

    Cheers... Rick
