    Thanks in Advance, trying to finish up.

    1. I have created a “Form” with several text Boxes and Combo Boxes that require information be input. At the end of the form, I have created a “E-Mail Form” button. When the button is clicked it does bring up the mail server with the pre-set address, but it does not attach the form data in anyway? Is there anyway to e-mail a completed “form” that includes all the input data?

    2. How do you clear a completed form so that another can be populated? I have a On Click Reset Form button, but it does not clear the data?

    Thanks

    Warning: I have had tons of problems working with a mailto: url as a form action. It behaves differently when loaded from the home screen. This led me to shy away from working with mail forms because they have been such an erratic headache. I will dust off my old examples and see if they perform properly on the latest iOS5. In previous iOS versions I wasted a ton of time on this. Give me a couple of days to dig out from a backlog of other requested examples. If you run into

    One thing behavior I’m almost certain still exists and caused past users to complain is that your mailto: form will probably open the iOS mail client to send you form data but once sent will not return to your app. We have no control over this unless you build a native app. This is a quirky characteristic from my post experiments.
