Can anyone point me to info on how to program share button functionality?

Can anyone point me to info on how to program share button functionality within an EMAIL (not a landing page)?

We'd like to design OUR OWN graphical buttons within our email template, but I don't know where to get the coding info in terms of how the "share" functionality works.

Has anyone done this and can offer insight or point me to tutorials?

I see this tutorial but as I said, we don't want to use Marketo-supplied icons: http://bit.ly/LqPak1

Could you embed the FTAF link in your icon? As a hyperlink.

Hi Sara,

What you would like to do would require javascript which is not supported by most email clients. You can use generic code from the various social networks to pop up a share in a new window, but there's no share tracking because it's not our application.
