Thanks

I was googling about this for you and I found this piece of code:

Code:
<a href="mailto:manish@simplygraphix.com?subject=Feedback for 
webdevelopersnotes.com&body=The Tips and Tricks section is 
great">Send me an email</a>
I found this code here:

That is very close but what I am looking to achieve is to embed an <a href> link in in the body of the email.

For example:
HTML Code:
<a href="http://www.mylink.com">Click here to go to page</a>
Is this possible?

I am not sure you will be able to embed a link into a mailto tag. I think most email clients will show the raw code. You could do something like this:
Code:
<a href="mailto:address@wmail.com?subject=Email Subject goes here&body=visit my site at http://www.mylink.com">Send me an email</a>
The recipient should be able to click on that link once the email has been sent.

You just insert the URL in the body text and most email client software spot and activate them as real links.

The mailto: method is a very bad technique for sending mail over the internet. It bothers users with modern browsers, and opens email addresses to exploits from spammers. I much prefer server side code to send mail through a form.
