I have tried with others and some (but not all) can do it. I was told that the web browser must call up the default mail client. Now I am trying to figure out how to do it on my computer. I am using Mozilla Thunderbird. Under Tools -> Options -> General Tag, I tried to click the "Use Thunderbird as the default client" but it unclicks as I leave it.Any other suggestions?Did you change your default mail client?A mailto link opens up your default mail client to send the email.Have you asked other people to try and see if the link works for them? -
I am presently having problems with the mail link in an anchor tag. Below is a test HTML.======= ======= ======= TEST HTML ======= ======= =======<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"><html><body> <a href="mailto:ed@domain.com">Mr. Ed</a> [note: this is NOT a valid E-mail address!]</body></html>======= ======= ==== END TEST HTML ======= ======= =======Error messages:I get from MSIE - "could not perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed".I get from Firefox - nothing happens.This test HTML page is runned off my computer using Windows 2000, version 5 (Service Pack 4). I get the same error messages from the web site I manage. The web site runs off another computer with the following specs:Server version: Apache 1.0O/S ver: Linnex Red Hat 7.xconfig: using Tomcat module of Apachesetup: serving JSP pagesThese mailto links worked before but suddenly quit working.Any suggestions?Eddie

I have taken over the website from a previous Webmaster.I am having problems using parts of the anchor attribute's values that are surrounded by "@" (example: <a href= "@NAME@/(path)").In the "build.xml" file, there are filterset definitions:<filterset id= thisHost> <filter token="NAME" value= "(URL)"> (more filter token declarations)</filterset>I have corrected this problem by replacing <a href= "@NAME@/directory1/...">(link name)</a> with:<a href= "(URL)/directory1/...">(link name)</a> (the complete URL as defined in the build.xml).What this does is make this link work only on the public web side but not in the web test site.I am using JEdit. When I call up the build.xml page using JEdit, I get the following error message: "3:cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'project'".Somehow, I feel that this might be the problem. On line 3 in the "build.xml" there is:<project name= "OurWebsite" default="init" basedir="(path)">Could someone help me solve this problem?Thanks:Eddie
