claudym Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 (edited) Hello again, so now that my site is online and i'm still sane (thank you Steve and Andy) can someone please tell me how I can have my contact mail (info_at_issakoffassociates.net) open up a compose mail window when someone click on it? can i do that in Dreamweaver? do I have to write code? ('panic')???? thanks! Edited November 21, 2005 by TCH-Dick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevevan Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 If I'm understanding what you want to do, by creating a "mailto:" link, whenever the user clicks on that link, it will open up a compose email window based upon the settings of the USER...not the web designer. If you wanted a specific format, look, etc., you could use some type of email form code. Don't panic...it's not that hard. There are many places on the web you can look. Check out the forums...we just had a thread going about this, but I don't remember where. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claudym Posted November 21, 2005 Author Share Posted November 21, 2005 Got it, and it works! Thanks Steve! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 For anyone else that may need to know it's created like this: ><a href="mailto:your-email-address">Email me</a> While this approach works it exposes your email address to the world. And we all know what comes next, right? All the SPAM you can read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevevan Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Thanks for the reminder Bruce...I was gonna put that in, but forgot. Claudym (and anyone else): There are several methods that you can use to encrypt your email address. A good site I use (and it doesn't require any programming skills) can be found here.
