Q: 

How do I send formated html emails?

I have a page where a user can "share" the page with other people. I want the email to be formatted with html.

I'm using javascript to send the email. Any Idea's?

+1  A: 

I assume you're using an html anchor element with the mailto: scheme.

To be able to reliably send formatted HTML in an email-client-independent way, you need to send via serverside code of some sorts.

I was using this http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/script2/tellafriend.shtml

Yes, that script is essentially the same. It uses the mailto: scheme.
