Insert email link missing in new editor??

The new editor it seems to be missing inserting a email link.. If I highlight text in the editor and click the insert link button in the toolbar, there is no option for inserting a email address as a link like in the old editor - unless I am missing something? Telling my clients that they have to insert mailto:[email protected] in the external link field seems pretty silly and backward.
Any plans to add this BASIC functionality back into the BC Editor?

Should not be too hard to add under external link in the link manager a email one.
This is all beta Alexander and BC know they got more things and bug fixes to add to it.

Tip - delete any email address code in the Insert email link prior to use!

I have been using the email link for a while now. I know its not secure, but in certain cases it can be used - I think.
Today I found a strange problem.
I have a recordset with lots of email addresses in it which are shown on an encrypted password and userlevel protected page.
The idea is to allow users with fully authorised access to the page to be able to email the other users by clicking on a link and opening their email client.
The email addresses are displayed as follows on the page:
<td>Email address:</td>
<td><?php echo htmlentities($row_clubedit['club_chair_email'], ENT_COMPAT, 'utf-8'); ?></td>
So after highlighting and copying the php code, I click on the insert email link in the insert menu.
The insert panel comes up with some code in the email link field without me paying any attention to it.
I paste my code into the text part of the link panel.
It comes up with the following code:
<td><a href="mailto:<?php echo $row_joinupset['mail']; ?>"><?php echo htmlentities($row_clubedit['club_chair_email'], ENT_COMPAT, 'utf-8'); ?></a></td>
Note that thre are now two different recordsets in the email address.These recordsets do exist on the page, but I did not insert the $row_joinupset['mail'] into the code - Dreamweaver did it.
Checking further, I find that earlier on the page I had created an email link by the same method using the joinupset recordset. The insert Email Link panel had not cleared the old email address from it's cache, so all the email adresses after the first one pointed to the same email address.
Because the page showed the correct email address, I did not notice until I tested my code, and found that every one called up the first email address.
I do not know if this is a bug in Dreamweaver, or why it happens, but it does.
Tip - delete any code in the email adress field of the insert panel prior to inserting the correct email address code.

I have gone though this process yesterday and worked for me.
I would suggest you to have following things handy before calling Apple
1. Serial number of apple device which is associated with ur apple id
2. At least one answer to your old security questions
3. And you should be logged on to my account page of apple Id so that when customer care demands generation of 4 digit code you can do it.
This complete process is very simple but may take some time but apple guy was very helpful in my case.
Also remember the answers to the security questions are case sensitive.
Good luck

Email link with no additional text insertion

Hello All.
Thanks for your participation here.
Kinda newbie here so forgive me if my terminalogy is off.
Two part question:
1) I'm creating popup windows. I get that there's a
difference between inserting a hyperlink to open a popup window as
opposed to adding a behavior to do the same thing. Adding a
behavior doen't screw up my layout the way inserting a hyperlnk
does so I much prefer that. (Why does any action screw up my
layout?)
2) Similarly, when inserting an email link DW insists an
adding text into my page and forces everything to move around.
(Things moving around without my consent is not acceptable to me.)
Is there a "behavior" that will trigger a viewer's email program to
send me an email to my designated address instead of the messy
email link? Or can I turn off the text insert that happens when I
enter my email address in the insert email link mode?
Thanks All.

There is no real difference between those two things.
One would be to add a hyperlink to the triiger pointing to a
new page with a
target of "_blank". The other would be to add a null link to
the trigger
which calls a javascript function that opens the new window.
They are
fundamentally the same - both require adding a hyperlink.
Neither should 'screw up [your] layout'. We'd have to see the
page and its
code, though, to know what you are doing wrong.

Give us an example, please.
> (Things moving around without my consent is not
acceptable to me.)
Get used to it until you have learned some HTML and CSS. It
will be a way
of life as long as you use DW exclusively in Design view.

No. But that "messy email link" is not the optimal way to do
it, either.
The best way is to link to a feedback form, which they fill
out, and which
is then sent to you by a form processing script.

Why, when I click on an email link in a PDF document, does a new tab open?

I convert an excel spreadsheet to PDF. I click on the email link in the new document and it opens a new FF tab and two, not one, two MS outlook emails. Drives me nuts.

I have the same problem, and I also wondered if Google toolbar has anything to do with it. There GMAIL was set as the default mail application at first. I have removed that setting, but Firefox 4.0.1 continues to use GMAIL instead of Outlook which is my selection for mailto handling.

Firefox won't open mailto links in a new window like it used to...it just opens gmail in the current tab.

I recently upgraded firefox and now whenever I click a mailto link it opens gmail in the current tab rather than in a new window. How can I get it to open email links in a new window.

My MAILTO problem was finally fixed on the June 29, 2012 Firefox version 14 beta 10 release.

Email Link problem

I'm using Dreamweaver 8, when I insert an email link it is
already populated with an email address which is becoming really
annoying!
Does anyone know how to clear this?

Yeah it does that to me too - but I never use the "insert
-> email link" method. Just type out what you want displayed,
highlight the text, and in the "link" field enter
"mailto:[email protected]" (minus the quotes of course).
Perhaps someone else knows how to "clear" the text in
question, but I have the feeling it's a feature ;-)

"Email link" option changes font to "Times New Roman" at end of the URL in Outlook

When using the "Email link" option in Firefox, it then calls Outlook, then inserts the title of the webpage, as well as the URL. This is a handy feature that I have been using for years, but has always had an annoying bug.
The URL in the body of the message conforms with Outlook's settings (font is Calibri 11 for me), but then Firefox also adds a space at the end of the URL, which is formatted in Times New Roman 12. I have gone through every template and setting Outlook and checked for TNR. It is nowhere to be found. This is something that Firefox is doing, and has been doing for many, many years (at least as far back as version 3.6, all the way to 17, which I'm running now.

Seems obvious now, just added the css class to the body div.

With no Firefox window open, I can't launch a new one. Or click on an email link and launch a window. This started when I upgraded to 5. Now I downgraded to 4 again and problem persists

I upgraded to Firefox 5, then noticed when a window was open I couldn't launch another one. Or launch into Firefox off an email link. Or open a new window if there was none open.
So I downgraded back to 4. Problem persists.

Uninstall the ones you know about, yes.
As regards the others, it's difficult to say. All you can do is to disable them all via Safe Mode (checkmark "Disable all add-ons", then "Make changes and restart") and then re-enable them one by one checking each time until the problem recurs. Laborious I know, but the only sound way of doing it I'm afraid.

When I click on an email link it opens in the email window instead of opening a new window, how to get it to open a new window instead

It's Comcast email, most links are to articles from the Wall Street Journal. Lately an email from Charles Schwab broker with a link to a pdf file has been doing the same. When I click on the link, it opens within the email frame, which is about 1/3 filled up with the toolbar, mailboxes, headings etc. If it opens with 2 bars on the right side to move down, I can see the whole article, but often it opens with only one bar on the right side which will not let me get all the way to the end of the page.
It's been happening for several weeks. I got a new computer and it's still happening. Comcast sounds like they've never heard of it. Most recently happened today. I tried the same email link with IE and it opened a new window.

Firefox sent an email to me to confirm that I had asked the above question. The email had a link to click. When I clicked it from Firefox, nothing happened. Then I opened IE, signed into Comcast, opened the email, clicked the link, and it brought me here.

Clicking email-links doesn't open "new message" window

Hi,
When I click email links, safari doesn't take me to the "new message" window. It activates safari: the program comes on in the dock and the text next to the apple logo changes to "mail", but I don't get the "new message" window

You're welcome. Glad to have helped.
Mahalo (thanks) for the and Aloha from Big Island.

My usual iCloud account has been locked out. I tried the email link - didn't receive an email. So I created a new Apple ID with another email but now I can't access my other Apple ID Mail, etc..

My usual Apple ID/iCloud account has been locked out. I tried the email link - didn't receive an email. So I created a new Apple ID with another email but now I can't access my other Apple ID Mail, etc.. How do I get the Apple ID I want to use working again? Help.

Hi JkeeneSoldano,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
To regain access to your Apple ID, try to reset your password using one of these methods:
Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
From:
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
If you need to use the email verification method but don't receive the reset email, see this link for more help:
If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support

Opening Email Links in New Tab

When I click on a link in email, Firefox opens the link in the current tab. My previous version of Firefox opened links in a new tab. Is there a setting to get the previous behaviour?

Something like this shouldn't require an addon. This should not have been removed from Firefox's feature list. Firefox is losing the war against Chrome, Safari, Opera, and even Internet Explorer.

Email link incorrect on live website. this is new, Help!

My website has been working fine until I updated it and touched up the layout. I never changed the link for my email but since my latest upload my email link opens up an email addressed to "[email protected]" WHAT? Should be "[email protected]". My website is garisonweiland.com.
iWeb does things like this sometime. It's temperamental.
Oh, I do not use AppleMe or what ever. I'm with Blue Host and I upload with Fetch. And I have been using, with few problems, iWeb 1.1.2.
Thanks in advance.
Gary

I figured it out. I just had to erase the image and link and create a new one.
