Is It possible to link an inline text...

I want to insert an email link into a text box. Just the one word inline. Is this possible? I see that you can link a web page URL but nowhere to link to an email. Am I looking at this wrong or is it not possible?

Thanks,
Linda

That is very easy to do. In the HREF box just enter mailto:me@me.com. If you want to use a phone number, use tel:5555555555

Thanks Scott for your reply.

Am I looking in the wrong place? As far as I can see there isn't a HREF box. is it in the edit text panel? In the text edit mode there is a Link box but it just takes an URL. As far as I can see there isn't any other boxes to add. I typed in mailto:ronpradetto@ronpradetto.com, which is the email address I want and when I preview it I still get a "webpage not found" page.
I have a feeling it is something simple and I'm going to feel like an idiot when I figure out what your talking about.

If you are using the in-line text editor, then you use the link box. Remember, for most people those links will not work unless a default email client is installed.

K,
Like I said I'm going to feel like an idiot. It worked after about the third time I tried it. I must have typed in something wrong.

Thanks
