Disappearing Email

[struth]

User puts in their emailaddress. Fine. I want to display that with a mailto link. So ....

<a href=&quot;mailto:<%=(rsProviderDetails.Fields.Item(&quot;SupplierEmailAddress&quot.Value)%>&quot;><%=(rsProviderDetails.Fields.Item(&quot;SupplierEmailAddress&quot.Value)%></a>

But no it won't accept duplicate recordset field. The 2nd just disappears. How can I avoid this.

What does it look like when you &quot;view source&quot; on the page?

It gives me
<a href=&quot;mailto:justwhat@Iexpected.com&quot;></a>

No highlighted link text at all or text of any kind!

for test purposes, try putting a constant where the email address should display:

<a href=&quot;mailto:<%=(rsProviderDetails.Fields.Item(&quot;SupplierEmailAddress&quot.Value)%>&quot;>Put your constant here</a>

see how that works.

Or you could save the value to a variable:

Dim sEmail
sEmail = rsProviderDetails.Fields.Item(&quot;SupplierEmailAddress&quot.Value


<a href=&quot;mailto:<%=sEmail%>&quot;><%=sEmail%></a>
