Email

There is no magic bullet that will make a site 100% accessible to all assistive technology devices. If you provide an email address on your site, you will provide a way for people to contact you in the event they cannot access something on your site.

You can provide an email link on your page by simply using the "mailto:" HTML code. The example below is demonstrated using Dreamweaver, but this is applicable to other HTML editors as well.

Type whatever you want to say for your email link on your page:

Email John Doe

Highlight the text and use the property inspector to create the link. In the link box, type:

mailto:

You will then type your email address directly after the colon:

mailto:whoever@wherever.com

Here is an image of what was just described using Dreamweaver:

If you want to insert all the HTML code manually into the code of your page, you can copy, paste and modify the following code:

The link would look like this, but with your name of course:

Email John Doe
