hello all-
took about 5+ hours today-
but i have finally got the email this page module working great on Drupal 4.5.2.

---> can someone please reply as to how i can upload / post this somewhere on drupal.org-
and i will do so immediately... (i didn't just want to paste it into the post...?)

you can check it out live now at: http://www.ralphdeluca.com

click on indivdual pages-
or images-

and you will notice the 'email this page' or 'email this image' links now appearing in the node links for each node.

i also have it turned on for the summary taxonomy views-
pages of categories like images, etc.

please note- this mod is working so sweet...

1- works seamlessly on all types of content nodes-
and can be set to 'email this image', 'email this weblink', etc.-
not just 'email this page'.

2- if you have primary links enabled in a theme- a link to 'email this page' will automatically appear in your primary links menu.

3- if you don't have primary links enabled-
or you are using a phptemplate based theme-
or if you want to simply add it as secondary link menu item-

all you have to do is create a link with a url of: "emailpage"
and again- it works great.

4- of course you can also add a graphic icon / text link anywhere on your template / theme-

OR even just as a block with the simple code of:

<a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com/emailpage">Click Here to Email This Page</a>

5- also cleaned up some code and language to suit my needs.

6- nice little sample of what the email you send will look like.

7- for just a one-file drupal mod- this thing packs a whole lot of punch! i am going to use this extensively on ralphdeluca.com- where we have huge, great looking images that we want people to spur visits and traffic with emails to friends...

needless to say- this mod does the trick, and more...
thanks to all that made the suggestions / patches / ports at this thread:

http://drupal.org/node/12741

i kind of welded all the diferent bits of code i found here- to make it all work nice.

thanks-
vincent

ps- the reason i still use drupal 4.5.2 is the wide-open and visible taxonomy-
across all node content types including images- is killer web power for the asking.

you have no limits to what you want to design / dev with this system.
i also have the image mod tricked out custom- with batch upload and useful image resizing aspects.

i find drupal 4.5.2 to be the most powerful and flexible cms that i have ever used-
including commercial software costing between $10K and $100K USD.

huge thanks to the drupal team for sharing the magic they have made-
with all of us.

I've read somewhere that emailpage doesn't work on 4.6 but this problem seems like such a short jump to solve.

The email is sent off just fine but the link it generates is faulty.

The link appearing in the email is:

http://www.squarefour.org/node/view/11

When it needs to be:

http://www.squarefour.org/node/11

I tried setting up a filter but I just can't make that work, and I looked at the code and botched it all up, I don't speak php.

Anyone have an idea how to fix it?
