Mailto in Code behind

[Joriz]

I have an image button that when click executes this

Private Sub btnContact_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.Web.UI.ImageClickEventArgs) Handles btnContact.Click

Response.Redirect("mailto:" & lnkContactEmail.Text)

End Sub

I know this is not the way to do it. This one redirects me to another
page and then opens up the email client. Is there anyway i can just
execute the "mailto" just like when doing an <a href="mailto"...> but
in code-behind.

Thank you very much.

What are you trying to do? Open up email client on the server?

Nope. not on the server but on the clients. so you mean if i issue
this command, response.rediect(..), it will only execute on the
server.

I have page that wherein one of the buttons is "contact me". if the
user clicks on that, it will open up his (client) email.

TIA.
