Im not sure what you mean by this, but do you mean a "code" for your Invision Board? And the premade email would be to an address the user specifys? We use a script on this board that uses PHP, if you click Invite a Friend above.

I found this service, that uses no script; it may not be as good as a coded solution, if you are hosting your won site, it would be alot easier to make a script, but, this service I found looks quite good...

Quote:
The only technical knowledge required is the ability to copy and paste a small piece of code into your web pages. Although you put the same piece of code on every page, visitors can effortlessly refer a specific page from deep within your web site because of Refer-A-Buddy's intelligent page sensing technology.


The site is: http://www.refer-a-buddy.com/

There are many free ASP, CGI and PHP scripts to do the job, but on your InvisionFree, you could use some javascript...

You could try this...

A JavaScript Tell-A-Friend

Enter this between the <head> and </head> tags.

Code:
DO NOT EDIT ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE initialsubj AND initialmsg.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin

var initialsubj="Hey buddy, take a look at this"
var initialmsg="Hi:\n You may want to check out this site: "+window.location
var good;
function checkEmailAddress(field) {

var goodEmail =
field.value.match(/\b(^(\S+@).+((\.com)|(\.net)|(\.edu)|(\.mil)|(\.go  v)|(\.org)|(\.info)|(\.biz)|(\.name)|(\..{2,2}))$)  \b/gi);
if (goodEmail) {
good = true;
}
else {
alert('Please enter a valid address.');
field.focus();
field.select();
good = false;
}
}
u = window.location;
function mailThisUrl() {
good = false
checkEmailAddress(document.tella.email);
if (good) {

//window.location =
"mailto:"+document.tella.email.value+"?subject="+initialsubj+"&body="+document.title+"
"+u;
window.location =
"mailto:"+document.tella.email.value+"?subject="+initialsubj+"&body="+initialmsg
}
}
// End -->
</script>


Enter the following code in between your <body> and </body> tags. Where you want the form to appear.


Code:
<form name="tella">
Tell a friend%u3a
<input type="text" name="email" size="26" value=" Enter Address
Here" onFocus="this.value=''" onMouseOver="window.status='Enter email
address here and tell a friend about this site...'; return true"
onMouseOut="window.status='';return true">
<br>
<input name="button" type="button" onClick="mailThisUrl%u28%u29;"
onMouseOver="window.status='Click to send an email %u28with this page
address%u29 to a friend! Enter email address above...'; return true"
onMouseOut="window.status='';return true" value="Send!">
</form>
