Link to prefilled email body with form

Question

I would like to create a link that opens your default email client (e.g. Gmail on your iPhone) with the following filled out:

TO: example@gmail.com
SUBJECT: Your Order
BODY: [A form as opposed to a text]

I know how to do the above if the Body is just a text (see below) but not if it is e.g. a HTML form.

Code if it is just a body text:

<a href="mailto:email@gmail.com?subject=Your%20Order&body=">Click here to send pre-filled email</a>

Thanks for help!

heres the code:

var link = document.getElementById('email');
link.onclick = function() {
    this.href = "mailto:you@yourdomain.com?subject=Data&body=";
    this.href += getBody();
};
