Hi,
I am trying to create hyperlinks in an HTML e-mail that links to a web site.
Since there will be several of these hyperlinks in a single e-mail, I have
created a javascript function that accepts the link-specific parameters,
sets hidden fields on a common form to the parameter values, and submits the
common form (code snippet at the bottom of this post). While this works
correctly outside of Outlook, no behavior occurs within an e-mail when the
hyperlink is clicked.
My suspicion is that the javascript is being blocked by Outlook. What
tricks or techniques can I use to get around this issue?
TIA,
Derrick
