Brian,
You are right but many feedback forms have an email link below them, this method would be a good bridge between the two.

I don't know about that... I still think feedback forms are better than the mailto links, no matter what you do to them.

This is also pretty good as a replacement for a HTML feedback form:
<A HREF="mailto:you@place.com?body=name:...">Email Me</A>

Yes, you can supply a subject by adding what is called a "query string" to the end of your email address. A query string starts with a question mark (?) followed by your
input. In this case, we want to add

?subject=your subject

So, to make "Hi There" the subject, you would write the link like this:

<A HREF="mailto:you@place.com?subject=Hi There">Email Me</A>

Hope this helps,
