Bug#: 14322

 

Problem Description: Mailto Links in Tables Don't Work In HTML. They can't be clicked. They work fine in the PDF version.

 

Steps to Reproduce: Paste an email address into a table cell. Select all of the text. Apply a character tag (e.g., Link Blue). Open Hypertext panel, add a link with Go to and "mailto:exampleaddress@example.com". Save. Generate HTML5 output using the Publishing module.

 

Actual Result: The text has the tagging, but is not clickable. PDF copy works fine.

Expected Result: The text should be a clickable link.

Any Workarounds: Not really

 

It would be great if some of you could upvote the bug.

    Is it the application of the character tag that busts it? Or does having it in table cell make any difference?

    We have copy/pasted the link from the table and into a paragraph. Works fine there. It's table specific.
