I did something like the following --- subject and anExpert both hold strings:
td.innerHTML = "<a href='mailto:"; + email + "?subject=" + subject + "'>" + anExpert + "</a>"; td.firstChild.click(); This works in IE and Opera, but not in Mozilla/Netscape. I splitted the last line into: a = td.firstChild; a.click(); and then inspected it with Venkman and DOM Inspector. The DOM Inspector told me that a is indeed an anchor-element but on the click I got in Venkman an exception (I do not want to reconstruct it now becauseof a bug in Venkman: displaying source code lines breaks off after a line: var experts = .... an 8000-bytes string and do not have the patience to change that just for a test.) I have changed the last line now into: if (a.click) a.click(); and ask my users with Gecko/Netscape to click on the mailto themselves.
