Targets for email links...

[DreBeltrami]

Hi there,

I am trying to design a "Contact" page with email links that open your email program in a new browser window, but I can't seem to make it work. I made each email addy targeted to _blank but it still opens my email in the same tab. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong, or what step I am missing?

The url is: www.manriquezconstructioninc.com/contact/html

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Andrea

The url you have here is not working.

To everyone - i changed the last forward slash to dot and it worked (in the URL provided above).

I have try your email links and they all worked like a charm.
I have Office 2010 on my PC and each link opens a new window of outlook email form.

Sorry about that, there was a / before html instead of a period.

Try this:

I just posted that it's all working. What email program are you using?

At home (where is wasn't working) I use Yahoo email - when I try at work, where I use Outlook, it works perfectly. Not sure why when it wants to open Yahoo mail it does it in the same screen as the website.

Just tried the link and got a 404. If you are using the attribute target="_blank" in your <a> tags something is wrong on your side if you get the same window.
