Email link with subject filled in
If you get alot of email through your website, I know you're wishing more people would put something in the subject field. Or, Let's say you have more than one product or service on your site, you can place a link for more information by each product/service and know before you read them what is being requested. Here's how:
This is the normal mailto link:
<A HREF="mailto:email@domain.com">Email Me</A>
To add the subject, simply add, &Subject=Your choice of subject here, after your address. The whole thing looks like this:
<A HREF="mailto:email@domain.com&Subject=Your choice of subject here">Email Me</A>
and produces this:
Email Me

How can you get the subject to be filled in with whatever is in the page title tags.

It should be a ? - not an ampersand:
<A HREF="mailto:email@domain.com?Subject=Your choice of subject here">Email Me</A>
