In this case, rather than creating a new page for each section there are links at the top and they lead to different parts of the page. Now for another type of link you can use. You may wish to have an email link on your site so that people can contact you. Typing your email address isn't enough to make it a clickable link. You need to use linking code to make it happen. This process is very similar to the internal link. To do this, you use the same basic link code but you modify it slightly where the URL would normally have gone. In it's place, you use mailto: as follows: You can also pre-fill the message subject if you wish for it to stand out when it arrives in your email inbox. To do this, you just add a new variable as follows: < A HREF="http://www.suite101.com/external_link.cfm?elink=mailto:you@youremail.com?subject=Your Subject Here" target="_blank" > Email Me If you click the link below, you should see an example of how this works.
