The problem I'm having is an extra  Chracter being added before the ® symbol in the body of an email created from a mailto: link in flash. This only happens on the PC in MS Outlook
Instead of: MasterCard®!
It shows up as
MasterCard®!
The code in flash AS3:
var req = new URLRequest("mailto:");
var variables = new URLVariables();
variables.body="Blah Blah Blah MasterCard®!";
variables.subject="Make some music!";
req.data = variables;
req.method = URLRequestMethod.GET;
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
function onClick(e:MouseEvent) {
navigateToURL(req, "_self");
}
}
This works fine on the mac with mac mail.
