Hello,
 I am NOT an HTML person.  I've been a Disabled Vet since 72. I have an extremely simple site that has a long graphic to scroll down. I like a 'FLOATING' Contact button which activates their email app that has as it's subject line " I have a question " I would greatly appreciate it if someone could Pretty  PLEASE add this button to the following html. In Return, I'll ad your contact info on the bottom of the Web Page Graphic if you would like it. OR PayPal you if you want to get paid. Here it is: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <title>Treehouse's Built For You! Handicap Access Possible!</title> <meta name="generator" content="Amaya, see http://www.w3.org/Amaya/" /> </head> <body> <p><img alt="Web Page Graphic" src="../rthman-website.jpg" width="1255" /></p> </body> </html> Attached File(s)

I think you are looking for position: fixed .
https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/visuren.html#propdef-position You can place the link anywhere in the HTML. Preferably somewhere suitable if the page is displayed without CSS. If you have an about us blurb, that's maybe a good place. HTML <div id="contact"><a href="mailto:you@example.com?subject=I%20have%20a%20question">Contact us</a></div> And in your style sheet this will place the link just a little bit from the top right corner of the browser window where it will stay when the page is scrolled. If you want it somewhere else you need to change the parameters. CODE #contact { position: fixed; top: 20px; right: 20px } |

QUOTE(okmatthew @ Nov 16 2016, 09:22 PM)  Contact button which activates their email app Keep in mind many use webmail and may not have an email program installed. An email link won't normally open their webmail service, unless the user has configured the browser: https://www.chainsawonatireswing.com/2015/0...h-mailto-links/ but I suspect few users are aware of those settings. Because of this, it might be a good idea to write the email address in clear text so the user can copy it to his webmail. Perhaps something like this: CODE <div id="contact">Contact us: <a href="mailto:you@example.com?subject=I%20have%20a%20question">you@example.com</a></div> (alas the email will not arrive to you with the predefined subject line this way). Or the user may simply right-click the email link and copy the link address to his webmail, but again many users are not aware of this possibility. |
