It was the right place. If it was not, then it's no big deal, we just move it where it goes.

you need a ? after the first variable set...
then use & to separate the rest of the sets.
heres another mailto goodie---

<a href="mailto:me@mysite.com?subject=doggies&body=have a nice day!&cc=you@yoursite.com,joc@hisplace.com&bcc=them@site.com">click here</a>

keep in mind...
this may not work in all browsers and versions.
it works in ie 6.0 / nn 7.0 / ff 1.0 as far as i have tested.
