HTML Email link question

[andrewsmd]

I don't know if this is possible but can you make a link open an e-mail window. What I mean is haveing something like <a href = "[e-mail]">Email</a> and have that open a new e-mail window. Possibly in outlook? Thanks

You simply need to add;
<a href="mailto:[e-mail]">Email</a>

You can also set the SUBJECT, one or moreCC and BCC recipients and BODY of the message

see [w3schools.com...]

Note: a 'plain' mailto link is a VERY simple format for spam-harvesters to read

There are many ways designed to make addresses in mailto links less susceptible to being harvested

Before I switched to forms I found that body text was not handled consistently by different email clients. You can't assume that everybody has Outlook.

Remember that a mailto link is only good for the email client (if any)installed on the PC. Webmail users will have to copy and paste everything.

This is just for our intranet and everyone uses Outlook so it will be fine. Thanks though
