Make an image an email link?

Hi
Just a quick question. Never thought about this before as
normally wouldn't use an image to make an email link, but is there
a way to do this in dreamweaver without entering the html? Just
wondered, as I can't see a quick shortcut within DW.
Thanks

just type in mailto: in the link instead of http into the
link box
i.e.
mailto:[email protected]

How do I make the image to a link?

I am trying to make the image a link. I have the facebook logo position on the left sidebar, but I need to make it a link. Here is my code:
<div id="sidebar">
<span style="position: absolute; background: url(images/certificate.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 250px; height: 150px; left: 160px; color:#600;">
<p style="position: absolute; bottom: 44px; left: 3px; width: 210px; height: 90px; font-size:11px;">
Alan is a certified Renovation, Repair and Painting Contractor. </p>
<p style="position:absolute; bottom: -6px; left: 2px; width: 220px; height: 90px; font-size:12px; font-style:oblique; color:#600;">
Click to see certificate</p></span>
<span style="position: absolute; background: url(images/facebook_logo.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 250px; height: 150px; top: 420px; left: 160px; color:#600;"></span>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/WE-SHOW-UP/198687606583?ref=ts%3Cimg%20src="></p>
    <span style="position: absolute; background: url(images/facebook_logo.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 250px; height: 150px; top: 420px; left: 160px; color:#600;"></span>
      <span style="position: absolute; background:url(images/BBB.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 250px; height: 150px; top: 500px; left: 160px; color:#600;"></span>
</div>
Something went wrong here, because the whole right side became the link, but the facebook logo is not working.
Here is the image.
Thanks!

<a target="_blank" href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/WE-SHOW-UP/198687606583?ref=ts%3Cimg%20s rc=">
It's also missing any meaningful HTML to apply that link to!
The code is so horrible I'm not sure there is a simple fix. It appears that you are wanting that link to apply to the facebook image which is used as a background image -
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/WE-SHOW-UP/198687606583?ref=ts%3Cimg%20s rc="></p>
    <span style="position: absolute; background: url(images/facebook_logo.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 250px; height: 150px; top: 420px; left: 160px; color:#600;"></span>
But you cannot apply a link to a background image. Ideally, you would have something like this -
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/WE-SHOW-UP/198687606583?ref=ts%3Cimg%20s rc="><img src="images/facebook_logo.png"/></a></p>
Where the image is contained within the anchor tags. But that's not possible given the code we have been shown - the whole layout approach would need to be changed.
Where did this code (*ew*) come from?

Make a graphic an email link without making the address visible?

How do I make a small graphic an email link in Dreamweaver Cs5.5 without having the email address visible?

Mailto: Links are visible to spam bots and email harvesters. Also, they depend on the end user having an email account & software like Outlook installed on their computer.
If your visitors use web mail accounts (yahoo, hotmail, gmail...) or they access the internet from cybercafes, public libraries, schools or community centers, they will see nothing. So this is not a reliable way to have site visitors communicate with you.
As previously mentioned, a contact form with a form-to-email processing script in PHP or ASP is the best solution. But as I understand it from a previous thread, you're on Intuit servers and they don't support PHP. Bummer.
To get around your host's deficiencies, you may need to use a service like Wufoo.

How can you make an image an hotspot link for an email or paypal account?

I have completed my first website using fireworks first then dragging it to dreamweaver cs6. My client is ready to launch their site. Two issues. I am literally trying to hotspot link an image for an email and paypal account. A few of my friends who are also website designers are having the same issue. Can this problem be solved so I can get paid?

Email link button not working

Can you wrap an image with a link in an html email signature?

When I cite a remotely hosted image in an html signature, and try to make that image a link, the link is ignored and the just the image is shown.
e.g.:
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ubiquia/146019678805381" target="_blank">
<img style=" position:absolute;
height:30px;
width:30px;
left:172px;
top:157.5px"
src="http://png.findicons.com/files/icons/2779/simple_icons/48/facebook_48_black.png" alt="ubiquia facebook" moz-do-not-send="true"
>
</a>

For each icon that you want to use in your email signature:
locate icon on internet webpage - right-click on the icon and select 'Save Image as'. Save the icon to your computer in a suitable file.
Then in Thunderbird
insert > Image
choose file - locate the saved icon on your computer
click on Link tab and enter the www etc webpage link info
click on OK to insert image with link.
Codewise, where you have the actual icon you would need something stating where the icon is located:
eg
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ubiquia/146019678805381" target="_blank">
path to image saved on computer included in within <> </a>

Email link in image?

Is it possible to insert an email link into an image? I have
an scanned in business card with an email address on it...can I
turn that into an actual email link somehow?
Thanks,
Bernie

do you want the entire image to be the link? Then in the link
part of the
Property inspector, type:
mailto:[email protected]
do you want just the part of the image that is the email
address part of the
business card to be linked? Then click on the image in the
Design window to
select it. Go to the Property Inspector, and use the
"Hotspot" tools to draw
a rectangular hotspot over that area. In the link box, type:
mailto:[email protected] {use the real email address}
in html terms, that associates a <map> tag with that
image, and when the
mouse is clicked in the area you've defined, the link you've
defined for
those coordinates is activated.
If you wanted to make text an email link:
<a href="mailto:[email protected]">email us</a>

Embed a web link into an image for email

Embed a web link into an image for email. Anyone knows how to do this?

Fantastic!!
Where did you get that?! I'll try it with the "poster frame" of a movie. I am so grateful. It opens a whole new world.

Email Link... and Email Image menu items don't work.

Suddenly, about a week ago, the Email Link... and Email Image menu items stopped working. Problem seems to be on only one login on one of my three machines. The rest seem to be OK.
Using FF 19.0 and TB 17.0.3 under Windows 7.
Any ideas?

Thank you. Although I had already checked the MailTo: application and found it set to "Use Thunderbird (default)", clearing that association and setting it to "Always Ask" jarred things loose. When I set it back to T-Bird, it worked again.
Again, thanks for the nudge.

How do i send an html file exported from muse as email blast with images and live links?

My question it:
How do i send an html file exported from muse as email blast with images and live links?
I have designed a "website" in adobe muse and exported it as an html file. I am not sure how to send my .html file in an email!
Best,
Nicole

Unfortunately, the answer is, you don't. The requirements for HTML displayed in an e-mail reader are very different than those for HTML displayed in a browser. The output of Muse won't work as an HTML e-mail. You could upload the Muse site as a website and provide a link to it in an e-mail, but the HTML generated by Muse is not suitable for direct display by an e-mail program.

How to make email link with a button with AC2 in flash cs3?

How to make email link with a button with AC2 in flash cs3?
I wrote this, but it does not work:
btn_emailinfo.on (release) {
getURL("mailto:"[email protected]");
}

I am guessing you put that on a frame?
If so, the syntax is as follows:
btn_emailinfo.onRelease = function(){
getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
Though, if you are placing it directly on the button itself,
the syntax is:
on(release){
getURL("mailto:[email protected]");
}

How do I make gmail the default email program for email links in the Mozilla browser?

In previous versions of Mozilla I was able to click an email link , for example, on a craigslist listing and it would automatically open my gmail login page or if I was already logged in it would prompt a new email (compose) with the email field already populated with the email link from which it was prompted. Hard to explain but currently it initiates an Outlook Express session which I don't use or even have configured. How is this process edited to work the way I would like it to? Thanks

See the section on "Setting Firefox's mail client" at [[Changing the e-mail program used by Firefox]]

Do you an extension or add-on for Firefox that can check an email link on a webpage, or if that email link is bad, make a suggestion for a good email link

I need a way to check the email on various websites contacts pages. If that email is undeliverable, could a correct email address be found ?

Is there anything that can scan an email link to see if that is good or find the correct email address for a website ? Maybe a program where you paste the main URL in it and it scans for all emails ?
Thanks

How to display URL images and URL link (html) from Smartforms?

Hi Gurus,
I'm having difficulty on how to display targeted URL images and URL link from the smartforms, after i sending it out as html mail. The mail i sent just can be preview as a plain text, which can't execute the html code that i put inside the smartforms itself. I follow a few step from this very useful blog.. Hopefully, you guys can give me some solutions or ideas on this.

1- put your images in a directory under the web app directory. Example: app/images/
2- in your jsp, use: String file = application.getRealPath("/images/"); to get the images directory. See http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/ServletContext.html#getRealPath(java.lang.String)
3- it's not the right forum to post this kind of question. Post them in the JSP/Servlet JSTL forum instead

Email link in a Jpeg Photo

So I called tech support and asked them this question
The first question was how do i add text to a image i have already placed on my page.
Answer: Export the image to a pic editor. LIke photoshop.
Ok fair enough
Then my next question was:
How do i get e link or email link on the text in the photo?
Once i have my image and text the way i want it, its saved as a image and i cant edit the text.
So my question is really two questions i guess.
How do i get text on a image in dreamweaver. If a editor is needed, then how do i set a link up to another page?
Thanks

Use the smallest image size necessary for the task. Small image slices or tiles make good backgrounds on web pages. You can set background images in your site's CSS to tile or repeat vertically, horizontally, both or none. So a little image can go a long way. It can fill an entire screen, table or a CSS division.
A common mistake among new web designers is trying to "fit" content precisely over a large, background image or photograph. This seldom works as planned because building for the web is nothing like designing for print. Owing to different browsers, user settings, text and display sizes which you cannot control, the web is an inherently flexible medium. You cannot place web content precisely over a big background image and expect it to stick. The only reliable way to retain precision is to place text on an image using your graphics editor, then flatten image and text layers and save for web as jpg, gif or png.
