PURPOSE
This JavaScript function is used to invoke a browser alert when a mailto: link
is clicked. The alert box has OK and Cancel buttons...clicking OK allows the
e-mail message to be created; clicking Cancel takes you back to the web page
without sending e-mail.
IMPLEMENTATION
Two things are required for this function to work:
-----------------------
Include JavaScript File
-----------------------
The portion of the document with the mailto: link must include this
file. This can be accomplished by adding the following
This can be done in each individual file, or, if you're using Dreamweaver
templates, you can probably just change each template.
Note that the above link to this file assumes that this file is located in
the same directory as the file with the mailto: link...if this isn't the case,
the above link needs to correctly specify the location of this file.
-------------------
Modify Mailto: Link
-------------------
The tag containing the mailto: link needs to call the confirm function. This entails
adding the following event handler to each mailto: tag:
onClick="return EmailConfirm();"
For instance:
BEFORE: click me
AFTER: click me
