Does anyone know of a "recommend" script that will email the actual webpage, or part of one (i.e. an image) to the person it's being recommended to instead of just the URL? I've seen a couple that send all the text of a webpage all wadded together in one long paragraph, which is kinda silly. The application I need it for is a database of used boats. I'd like to enable visitors to send a "specs sheet" webpage to friends, or at least a photo that's on the page.

Thanks!

As I see this, it can be implemented in a different way like below:

You can send the actual page of the Website in question - along with the images, CSS etc and you avoid copy right issues too - by directly linking to the actual page.
Use something like LWP perl module to get the page and parse the contents and then display 'dynamically' below your header, the freshly downloaded page content. You will have to 'translate' the links to their original server.

This would help to render the page as it was originally designed.
