Email Links

To get this email link Email us

add the following
<A HREF="mailto:your_email_address@here">Email us</A>
mailto:whatever can also be used in emails
if you want to send the email to 2 addresses then just separate them with a comma,
<A HREF="mailto:your_email_address@here, someone_else_email@here">

Make an email link into a form letter Email Us
mailto:your_email_address@here?subject=this fills in the subject for them so you know what it's about
if you add a ? and put subject = followed by what you want in there, you automatically fill these in.
you can also do it with body= so you could have a sort questionaire i.e name, address, Phone No
to separate these with a new line just add %0A between each new line
if you want use both subject and body use & after your subject statement
you can also send CC and Bcc by using cc= or bcc=
Make an email link into a form letter Email Us
<a href="mailto:your_email_address@here?subject=Your subject &body=name:%0Aaddress:%0Aphone No:">

Try this by using everything Email Us
it now is sent to two people and a cc and a bcc and has a subject and new lines with name:, address: and Phone No in the body of the text.

Due to the amount of spam an email address link seems to generate now I don't use this method on the internet much, mainly on interanets. The alternatives are to create a picture of the email address and insert that with a note like "Sorry no link is here any more so you have to type it yourself"
An alternative is this bit of code which apparently works because spammer use a program which takes the email address out of pages but when it sees this it picks out +_l+
<script type=text/javascript>
var _u = "html";
var _d = "omniautos.f9.co.uk";
var _l = _u + "@" + _d;
var _m = "Email us";
document.write("<a href='mailto:"+_l+"'>"+_m+"</a>");</script>
i.e.
when you put the cursor over it reads as a normal email address and appears to work with thunderbird and outlook

Or you can put delete_this_bit in the the email address i.e. Email us
<A HREF="mailto:your_email_address_delete_this_bit@here">Email us</A>
Or another way around this is to put a link with part of the address in and get the user to fill in the rest. i.e. in the link below we would say "to email us click on the link below and change 'here' to 'omniautos' this is to stop programmes takeing your email address out of the source code and targetting you.
All these require some belief that users will understand what you mean so do make it obvious what is reqiured or you could be the loser also some users have said that they have had to try a few times to edit the address and that was friends trying because I asked them most user would have given up after first go.
