I am having a problem using Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) to open mailto links with long messages.
After
the user clicks on
the link, IE changes to an about:blank page and never completes
the call to outlook to create an email
Here's an example:
<a href="mailto:
[email protected]?subject=123456789&body=111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111">mailto fails in IE8</a>
If I shorten
the list
of 1's,
the email is generated and can be sent.
Is this a known IE issue? What are
the limitations?
