Sorry, but no - it cannot be done that way. As you suspects, the javascript or HTML in a web page can not refer another program.<br />

So I guess it just defaults focus to the subject - &nbsp;no matter what?<br />
<br />
Reasoning of asking this: &nbsp;I thought I seen somewhere that this possible.<br />
Thanks - I will leave this open another 24 hours and see if someone has any bright ideas.<br />

Is there a way to set the focus when using a regular mailto: link to email someone<br />
i.e., someone@email.com?subject=<wbr />Contact+Ci<wbr />ty+Manager<wbr />&amp;amp;body=<wbr />Dear+City+<wbr />Manager:<br />
<br />
This does correctly prepopluate the fields, however the focus seems to stay in the subject line when I am attempting to force it to set its focus in the body of the email message. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I realize this may be an issue in depenance on what the end users email is, but figured I'd ask incase there is a way to do this.<br />

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft’s first server-side engine for dynamic web pages. ASP’s support of the Component Object Model (COM) enables it to access and use compiled libraries such as DLLs. It has been superseded by ASP.NET, but will be supported by Internet Information Services (IIS) through at least 2022.
