RE: how to do mailto:

Thanks to the list for their help (Alistair MacDonald & Ben Robb both
providing a solution), the problem is now solved. 

Solution begins:
<a>
  		<xsl:attribute name="href">
		mailto:<xsl:value-of select="emailAddress"/></xsl:attribute>
 	 	<xsl:value-of select="emailAddress"/>
	</a> 


Thread end.
