Formatting of "mailto" URL?

[arothmanmusic]

When using the "Email" share, the format of the link is:

mailto:?&body=http://my.url

The ampersand between ? and body is not accepted by MS Outlook and it generates a blank email. Thunderbird doesn't seem to mind it, but Outlook simply launches an empty email.

Why do you put ampersand? Have you tried w/o it?

I don’t have any control over how the script generates the link… do I?

I ended up adding an additional script to remove the & again after jssocials runs.

Ah, I see, you are right, it's because you don't define a subject.

but you can redefine the share url of the email share (before you initialize the jssocials control):

jsSocials.shares.email.shareUrl = "mailto:{to}?body={url}";
