Need to send a link in mail using apex

Question

Hi,
I need to send a mail using apex which will contain a link for a specific page. For sending mail , I used the following query:
for c1 in (select EMAIL_ADDRESS
             from USER_DETAILS
            where USER_NAME= :P4_USER_NAME and EMAIL_ADDRESS=:P4_EMAIL_ADDRESS) loop
  if c1.EMAIL_ADDRESS is not null then
    HTMLDB_MAIL.SEND(
      P_TO       =>  c1.EMAIL_ADDRESS,
      P_FROM     => '[email protected]',
      P_BODY     => 'Your new password is '|| 'xyzxyz',
      P_SUBJ     => 'Password detail' );
  end if;
end loop;
But how i will send the required link.
Pls give some idea.
Thanks,

Hi Chandra,
Try this version of your code, you will alter the url to map to your apex server.
DECLARE
   l_body   VARCHAR2 (4000);
BEGIN
   FOR c1
      IN (SELECT email_address
            FROM user_details
           WHERE     user_name = :p4_user_name
                 AND email_address = :p4_email_address)
   LOOP
      IF c1.email_address IS NOT NULL
      THEN
         -- Include link to login page
         l_body :=
               '<p>Your new password is '
            || 'xyzxyz'
            || '  To access the application and change your password, follow the '
            || 'link below.</p><p><a href="http://'
            || '</p><p><a href="http://edwprd:7777/pls/oitp/f?p=&APP_ID.:LOGIN</a></p>';
         apex_mail.send (p_to     => c1.email_address,
                         p_from   => '[email protected]',
                         p_body   => l_body,
                         p_subj   => 'Password detail');
      END IF;
   END LOOP;
END;
