OnClick event will not work in outlook express 1

[bhuninghake]

Sent out a message to our customers advertisting Valentine products. In the message I was trying to use the onclick event so the customer could click the image and see a bigger image than the thumbnail in the message. Here's a sample of the code that works perfectly on the website but I'm unable to make work in a message.

<a Href="#" onClick="window.open('[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.publicgold.com/Store/Images/0103.jpg',[/URL]
'newwindowzoom','toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,
statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=1,width=450,height=450,
left=200,top=50')"  />
<img border="0" src="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.publicgold.com/Store/Images/0103_155.jpg"[/URL] width="155" height="155"></a>

I assumed that I could make the onclick event work like I would on any html page. So, my question is whether you can use the onclick event in messages or am I simply missing something in the above code?

Thanks to anyone being able to clarify this problem and point me in the right direction on what I might need to read concerning the use of the onclick event in messages.

Not likely. Most orgs will limit what can run. I certainly wouldn't want something firing within an email client.
