On a page I have bios of several staff members along with their email address. I'd like the user to be able to click on it and have it open their default email application. How do I do this?

Hi Tim,

You need to use the mailto syntax, add the link URL in the following way:

mailto:someone@example.com

Hi,

The page HTML remains in all responsive modes. Only CSS changes. Therefore the link should work in all modes.
We can check this issue. For this, please create a new private topic and provide a problem project or a link to the website so we can see the issue.
