Creating an Email Link Navigation Entry

Description

A navigation system component may have three types of entries:

"Link"
"Separator"
"HTML"

A "Link" entry connects to a web page. A "Separator" entry creates a line that divides other entries. An "HTML"entry can do this and more. A common use of the "HTML"entry is to create a mail-to hyperlink.

Add a new entry to your navigation component.
Select "HTML" in the Node Settings > Type list.

Enter HTML code into the Node Settings > HTML property. The following is an example:

<a style="COLOR: #ffffff; TEXT-DECORATION: none" href="mailto:sales@alphasoftware?subject=Inquiry from...">Contact Us</a>

This code:

sets the color of the text to white (#FFFFFF)
sets the email address to "sales@alphasoftware"
defines the subject line of the email to be "Inquiry from... "
displays the label "Contact Us".
