Email links in email templates display full domain

[chavab_1]

I created a custom email template for my form. In the template I've added some placeholders so the email recipient could get the data that the user filled out in the form. Everything is working and rendering correctly except for an email link that I want to include. Inside of the a tag instead of just the email address being rendered, the whole domain plus the email address get rendered. The funny thing is that I've tested by removing the entire placeholder and just leaving the href attribute blank, and it still renders the domain.

I don't know if there's a setting that I need to adjust but I've looked everywhere.

Here's the code that I have in my template:

<a href="{fab_test___email}">{fab_test___email}</a>

This is what's rendered in the email:

<a href="www.mydomain/test@gmail.com">test@gmail.com</a>

OK, two things ...

1) you'll need this fix:

https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/commit/61e441e7b202a99715cae37c7aa87c42e8e9d79e

... which you can either do by hand to your code, or do a full github update to pick it up.

2) Change you template to ...

<a href="mailto:{fab_test___email}">{fab_test___email}</a>

... so you are actually creating a 'mailto' href, not a normal URL.

-- hugh

I'm sorry, yeah that was the first code I added. I did update it to include mailto but I still got the same result.

I'll try adding the patch and see if that fixes it.

Thanx
