Contact Layout Custom Button
I'm trying to write a custom button for a contact page layout. Below is my desired code. I'm trying to initiate an email that will have a custom link URL in its body but the link has URL parameters which aren't working because the original mailto: has URL parameters so it's not being interpreted correctly. I've already tried using ASCII but it doesn't translate correctly. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Feel free to recommend an alternative solution for this implementation.
mailto:{!Contact.Email}?body=<a href="http://scholastica.tfaforms.net/217735?tfa_170={!Contact.Id}&FunnelNum={!Contact.Student_Master__Master_Application_Number__c}">Quick Survey</a>
mailto:{!Contact.Email}?body=<a href="http://scholastica.tfaforms.net/217735?tfa_170={!Contact.Id}&FunnelNum={!Contact.Student_Master__Master_Application_Number__c}">Quick Survey</a>

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I was able to create an email template that had the dynamic link that I needed and then use the location.replace to bring up the email template from the contact record.
Much Thanks,
John
