..attempt sending an html document as email how would he go about getting the javascript to work?.many attempts have been made but to no avail...any input would be appreciated.

How do you create/send your HTML e-mail?

only some mail places support it but yahoo and hotmail are two of them, you just have to click on "allow HTML tags" and then just type in you code. as long as any pix are linked properly it all shows up as a web page when the reciever opens it...its kinda cool.it would be alot cooler if i could get my javascript stuff to work as well.

Most sane people turn off JS and other scripting tools in their email reader because of all the nasty worms that have been circulating. You'd be better off ultimately to send a link to the page so they could open it in the browser of their choice and enjoy your scripts that way.

Punchdrunk, you can also send HTML e-mails from Outlook Express (the latest versions of OE also have "Edit View", where you can see the HTML code of the message and add your JS code).
