How to open default mail client with attachment in web application

[SachinKumar M]

I want open default mail client with attachment from web page.

There is no official way to attach files using "mailto" protocol. Most likely because of the security reasons. However some email clients do accept the attachment parameter with the file in quotes i.e. attachment="C:\fileName.txt" such as outlook 98.

Basically you can't, and as it depends on the email client, you have no idea what they are using - outloook, eudora etc etc
