Linking to an e-mail address

You can create a link to an e-mail address. The link can be text or an image. When a website visitor clicks the link, Contribute creates a new message, with the e-mail address you specified, in the visitor’s default e-mail application.

For example, you might create the text link "Contact us about our new products!" When a visitor clicks the link, Contribute launches the visitor’s e-mail application and creates an e-mail message to the Sales department.

To create a link to an e-mail address:

  1. In your draft, do one of the following to indicate where the link will appear:
  2. Do one of the following to open the Link dialog box:
  3. Click the E-mail Address button (Windows) or E-mail button (Macintosh) at the top of the dialog box, if it is not already selected.
  4. Enter link text in the Link text text box, if you did not select text or an image in your draft.
  5. This is the text a website visitor clicks to send an e-mail message.

    Note: This text box is not available if you selected text or an image in the draft.

  6. Enter the e-mail address in the E-mail address text box.
  7. Click OK.
  8. Contribute adds the link to the page.
