A question out side of this site.
I have created a website for someone, and i have created a link for them called info@blahblah.com but when they use it it opens there hard drive up!! It should open up their e mail account should it not, it does mine.

Any ideas why?

Many thanks
 
I'm no expert, but don't you create a mailto: link then the associated mail app with their address pops up?

If they have mail app problems, it might just be that the browser is opening an explorer for you to select the mail app?
 
I suspect that you did this

<A HREF="info@blahblah.com ">link text here</A>

instead of this

<A HREF="mailto:info@blahblah.com ">link text here</A>

Or something similar
 
No, the link is right it works on my computer and someone elses, i feel its his computer, just wondered why it does it?
 
Only reason I can think of is that somehow they've fecked up the association of Outlook Express (or whatever) for emails, and Windows Explorer has got it instead. Sounds like its not your problem though.
