Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, I have a mailto: link in html, which opens the email client. What I would like to to is create the link to a script say, <a href="email.pl">Click here</a> and this would generate some statistics for me and then open the email client.

use LWP::Simple qw/get/; my $content = get('mailto:me\@me.com'); warn "Couldn't get it!" unless defined $content; print $content;
doesn't work - is there anything that might?
