JavaScript is a client side scripting language. Sending email from a Website requires a server side language such as PHP.

Hope this helps,

You do not need Javascript to do that you want.

Simply include a mailto link in your page and when the user clicks on it their email client is automatically opened with the 'to' field automatically prefilled.

Example:

Code:

<a href="mailto:you@somedomain.com">contact us</a>

You must make sure to encode the email address so that bots and webpage scrapers do not harvest your email address for spamming. This is VERY important.

Try this:
Encrypt mailto-email links

You can't send email with javascript, it is a client side language. Use php instead.
