Question

How can you do something like this:

myLink

And have the js

Answer 1

I know this question is old but I had a similar challenge dynamically modifying the href attribute that sends an email when the anchor tag is clicked.

The solution I came up with is this:

$('#mailLink,#loginMailLink,#sbMailLink').click(function () {
    this.setAttribute('href', "mailto:" + sessionStorage.administrator_mail_address + "?subject=CACS GNS Portal - Comments or Request For Access&body=Hi");
});

CACS GNS Site Admin.

I hope that helps.
