Hi There,

When inserting a mailto link true the rte form the actual code generated isn't
<a href="mailto:test@test.com" /> but <a href="http://" />.

Can anybody help me with sorting this out.

Kind Regards,
Tim

I have just tested the latest RTE and can not replicate this error.

If you select the add hyperlink button from the toolbar when the popup window opens to insert a link make sure you select 'Email' as the link type. This will then create a mailto: link rather than an https:// link.
