I created a content type and added a field to store an email address. The types of fields to choose from do not seem to include a link type, so I assigned it's type as text thinking I could enter the html in this field, and it would display as a link - not so. Is there a module or a different way to add a mailto link as a type when creating content types?

If you enable the contact module that's in Core-Optional, the email field should have a new option in its field configuration that allows you to specify if you'd like it to display as a mailto: link or provide a contact form.

edit: This requires using the cck email field.

HTH,

Look at the Content Construction Kit and its addon modules.

Thanks - I found a development version of a CCK email field. Works exactly the way I need.
