You're going to need to create two pieces, the first will be a server side page that takes the information and sends it via email, the second piece is the JQuery that takes the contents of the div and sends it to the server side page.

The server side will depend on your environment so it could php, asp, jsp, etc. For the JQuery part take a look at some of the ajax methods, http://api.jquery.com/category/ajax/ , most likely the load() method, http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.post/ , will be a good choice for you. There are plenty of samples there for you to check out.

Hope that helps

Steps 1: Write a server-side script in PHP/ASP/CFM or other language which accepts two POSTed fields for example, message (div content) and subject, and then sends an e-mail to you. Test the script and make sure it is doing just that.

Step 2: In your index.html page include the following:

$(function() {
$('#boton').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url:'<your-server-side-script>',
type:'POST',
data:{'message':$('#Enviar').html(),'subject':'Subject of your e-mail'},
success:function(data) {
alert('You data has been successfully e-mailed');
alert('Your server-side script said: ' + data);
}
});
});
});

Not sure I understood all you said but if you want to send e-mail using your application:

1. You application has to run on a server

2. That server has to support some server-side scripting such as PHP/ASP.NET/ColdFusion/JSP etc

3. You need a server-side script to do the work for you.

What scripting language does your server support?

use the ajax code already provided, server code is not part of the scope of jQuery forum and you can find plenty of php mail code in minutes through google
