This module helps visually distinguish between internal and external links on a website. It can automatically add icons to mailto: links and external links, and optionally open external links in new windows or prompt users before they leave the site.
External Links is a small module used to differentiate between internal and external links. It will find all external links on a page and add an external icon indicating it will take you offsite or a mail icon for mailto: links.
Configuration options:
- Apply icons to either mailto: or external links or both.
- Configure external links to open in a new window.
- A confirmation message when leaving the site.
- Regular expression inclusion and exclusion of links considered external.
- CSS selector inclusion and exclusion of elements for processing
You may also take a look at MailtoUI , Mailgo , which can add mailto functionality.
