We have numerous mailto's within the site that won't work in chrome yet they work in all other browsers.
You can see there's a link but when clicking nothing happens. Is there some reference to put in place to rectify this?
Here's a line out of one of the pages which won't work in chrome yet works fine in firefox;
<i class="icon-envelope2"></i> [ --email address here -- ](mailto:--email address here --?subject=Website inquiry from contact page) <span class="middot">·</span>
Further update to help shed light on this issue, seems to work in chrome on a PC but not mac?
well, that is because you need to use a hyperlink to force an email link.
I imagine other browsers are auto transforming the link, but chrome isn't.
`<a href="mailto:example@email.com">mailto:example@email.com</a>
Hello,
@KieranFoot is perfectly correct! This is a Browser Feature and you will need to use the following to code to make your Emails Clickable in all browsers uniformly:
[example@email.com](mailto:example@email.com)This will definitely work fine. Hope this Helps!
