Adding a subject to an e-mail link

Usually, an e-mail link would look like this:

<a href="mailto:sales@coraid.com">E-mail sales </a>

But to add a subject line to the e-mail when someone clicks the link and sends an e-mail is done with the one of the two following examples:

<a href="mailto:sales@coraid.com?subject=New%20sales%20inquiry">E-mail sales</a>

or

<a href="mailto:sales@coraid.com" title="New sales inquiry">E-mail sales</a>

The first one works every time that I have used it, but the second one is an HTML compliant way of doing the same thing.

Coraid blogging

I am now working for Coraid as a systems engineer. I will be blogging professionally at Coraid's blog, and also will be responsible for much of the company's new documentation, which has kept me very busy so far. I will continue to blog here when I find interesting things to blog about.
