I think it says you can't in the directions, but is there a way around this? When a person clicks a name in one of the fields and then clicks save record, I want a small text e-mail to be sent to whomever they selected from the list. Is this possible? Thanks much

1. Instant Web Publishing is very limiting in what you can do (not much).

2. Scripts of any kind are fraught with problems. Unless you have a way to work around the fact that WC is single-threaded (5.0 and earlier), you will subject the database to the problem of scripts not running and the subsequent data hanging in limbo. Additionally you will subject your clients to being informed that their transactions were successful when in fact they were not successful. And no one seems to know if such data manipulation is possible in the WC of 5.5.

With FMP 5.5 you can send mail through the browser using the Open URL script step.

Create a calculation field "MailSpec" with something like this:

"mailto:" & MailtoAddress & "?subject="Your subject "?body=" & Comments

Create a script 'Mail' with script step OpenURL ["MailSpec"]

Create a button 'Mail' and attach the script 'Mail' to it. Et Voil
