E-mail hyperlink not working.

[vikenk]

Hello all,

I have an e-mail hyperlink in the text of one of my menu items, but clicking on it does nothing. I wonder if my syntax is correct. If you go to:

http://www.sayatnova.com and go to "Pictures" and "Read Me" you'll see the hyperlink and that it's inactive. Here's how it looks in my menu_data.js file.

Code: Select all

with(milonic=new menuname("Read Me")){
style=sub;
aI("onbgcolor=#000000;oncolor=#ff9900;itemwidth=300;align=left;text=*All pictures are the property of the Sayat Nova Dance Company of Boston. Pictures may not be used or reproduced without the expressed, written consent of the Sayat Nova Dance Company of Boston. For any media requests, please contact <a href='mailto:webmaster@sayatnova.com'>the Webmaster</a>.<br>*All photographs by Viken Karaguesian except 'Nune Tour 2002', 'Armenia 1995' or as otherwise noted.");
}

Notice <a href='mailto:webmaster@sayatnova.com'>the Webmaster</a>. As far as I know, this syntax is correct and it does show up as "hyperlink blue".

Can an e-mail link be done this way or must I put it in the menu as url=mailto:webmaster@sayatnova.com?

Thanks.

yes, put it in the menu as url=mailto:webmaster@yourwebsite.com

this works, depending on your mail program, just tested e.g. with Pegasus Mail.

If you want to keep it as the text link like that, you need to add type=html; to the aI string.

Code: Select all

. . .otherwise noted.;type=html;"); 
}
