[javascript] mailto using javascript

Please find the code in jsFiddle. It uses jQuery to modify the href of the link. You can use any other library in its place. It should work.

HTML

<a id="emailLnk" href="#">
    <img src="http://ssl.gstatic.com/gb/images/j_e6a6aca6.png">
</a>

JS

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#emailLnk").attr('href',"mailto:[email protected]");
});?

UPDATE

Another code sample, if the id is known only during the click event

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#emailLnk").click(function()
     {
         window.location.href = "mailto:[email protected]";
     });
});?
