May 12, 200916 yr [color:blue]Here's the background info: I started work on a contact db that I can access from an iPhone, or in fact from any browser while I am out of the office. So far I have been using Remote Desktop in XP which is fine for working from home but I needed something else that makes it a bit easier to access contact details for clients and suppliers while out on the road. AWith almost 3000 contacts I don't want to use the phone book on my iPhone. After reading a few topics here I have found out that IWP and iPhone are not a happy couple and perhaps there are better options. Despite this I thought I'd give it a go and I have found it to be quite OK for what I need. The issue I am having though is creating an email link on my db so that I can use it on the iPhone. The "mailto:[email protected]" doesn't work on the iPhone but it works OK in IE7 and Firefox. [color:blue]So here's the question: Perhaps this is a limitation of IWP but can anyone help me create a link that will open the mail app on iPhone and populate the To field?
May 12, 200916 yr Hello, You might want to have a look at FMTouch - http://www.fmtouch.com a very interesting option imho....
May 13, 200916 yr Author Thanks sky. I've had a brief look at this - might need to have a closer one.
May 13, 200916 yr Author Interesting question IdealData. I have googled this one and have come up blank. I suspect that IWP doesn't allow it but I can't work out why when other "mailto;" links work fine (ie. on other websites). I was hoping there was some coding I could write and attach it to the Open URL command.
