I am using a bookmarklet in Google Chrome to automatically create a Remember The Milk (RTM) task from a Google Mail email.

I found the javascript for the bookmarklet in one of the RTM forum posts.

The script works really well, when clicked it opens up the RTM mobile site (m.rememberthemilk.com) "add a task" form and automatically populates some of the fields in the form (due, list, tag).
My problem is that in the "Task Name" field as well as adding the Gmail title it puts our company name at the beginning and my email address at the end eg.
"Supportspan Group Ltd Mail - email title - martinc@supportspangroup.com".

Can any of you experts who frequent this forum work out from the script below if there is a way of modifying the script so that it just enters the email title into the Task Name box without our company name and my email address?

Here is the script;
java script:(

function(){cp='http://m.rememberthemilk.com/add?name='+encodeURIComponent(document.title)+' &due=today&list=18906301&tags=@laptop&url='+encodeURIComponent('https://mail.google.com/a/supportspangroup.com/?fs=1&tf=1&source=atom&view=cv&search=all&shva=1&th=')+escape(location.href.substr(-16));w=window.open(cp,'addwindow','status=no,toolbar=no,width=250,height=660,resizable=yes');setTimeout(function(){w.focus();}, 500);})(); 

I have added a space between the java and script to prevent it running on this page (not sure if I need to do that or not, I really dont know very much about javascript)

Thank you for reading this post and really appreciate any help you can give me.

Regards Martin (javascript "very" newbie).

:) Don't worry you have to put in a bit of script to make it run :D
Hmmmmm...
It appears to send some type of AJAX request, and open a pop-up. Or more likely it is opening a popup with some GET variables.
From what I see its just trying to tell Gmail that this user wants to do something with the page, ima guess its adding it to a bookmark list.

I think that script just opens a new window at Login - Remember The Milk....

(posting javascript won't cause it to run here)
