<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
One of our webpages has an &quot;Email this page&quot; capability.<br />
<br />
I have coded a button that when clicked builds the necessary code to open the user's email client with the subject and body filled in ie;<br />
<br />
&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:?subject=....<wbr />.....&gt;&lt;/a&gt;<wbr /><br />
<br />
Part of the body includes a link back to our page. Currently the link back to our page is plain text (<a href="http://www.company.com/" rel="ugc">http://www.company.com/</a>.....) which email clients automatically interpret as a hyperlink.<br />
<br />
I would like to explore changing the plain text link in the email body to an actual hyperlink so that it can read &quot;click here&quot; rather than the entire URL string. <br />
<br />
Basically embed a hyperlink within another hyperlink. <br />
<br />
We are running .Net Framework 4.0 and Windows Server 2008 R2<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help.

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the main markup language for creating web pages and other information to be displayed in a web browser, providing both the structure and content for what is sent from a web server through the use of tags. The current implementation of the HTML specification is HTML5.

HTML

An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program in the category of groupware environments used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions may internally act as an email client; as a whole, it is commonly referred to as webmail. Likewise, email client may be referred to a piece of computer hardware or software whose primary or most visible role is to work as an email client. Email clients can also have other systems, like calendars, notes and contact managers.

Email Clients

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.
