Hi,

I have searched both the FAQ's and these forums, but I can't find an answer or even someone else asking the same question.

What I would like to know is if there is anyway to make the email address in the contact page clickable?

I have tried traditional email tags, but that wasn't accepted. I have also tried the same in the 'contact info' & 'other fields' fields, as well as fields in the the about us page. but all of these just printed the tags without creating a link.

Peter.

Hi,

Yes, I did it in mine in the top field on the contact us page and it works, opening a new window w/the email address and form. I don't know how to paste the HTML here in a way where you can see the HTML and not just the clickable link. I'll try to past it all except the ending, which would be the "<" followed by the "/font" followed by ">"

<font size="4"><p><p>Please <a href="youremailaddress@address.com">contact us</a> with any questions or for additional information.

Okay, that came out correct. Then right after the end of the sentence put </font>

I hope this helps.

Hi thanks for your input.

The code you gave is not correct, but helped jog my memory. The code as given, tries to open a webpage because it's missing mailto:.

So, the correct code should be
quote:
<font size="4"><p><p>Please <a href="mailto:youremailaddress@address.com">contact us</a> with any questions or for additional information.</font>


Thanks,

Peter.

Oh, yes, you are right Peter. Sorry about that. The "mail to" language is in my own "contact" field but I see it was accidentally deleted when I copied it to here. I'm glad you were able to figure out what was wrong and fix it.
