ATTACH A URL IN NETSCAPE

If you just want to include a hypertext link to a Web page in an e-mail message, but don't want to send the Web page as an attachment, type the URL directly into the e-mail message. It will be displayed as a hypertext link when the recipient receives the message.

Rather than typing the URL into your e-mail message, you can have Netscape enter it for you. Right-click on a link to the URL in a Web page, choose Copy Link Location from the context menu, click in the e-mail message, and press [CTRL] + [V].

Steps:

1. Display the Message Composition window, fill in the Mail To, and Subject text boxes, and type a message. Then click on the Attachment button to display the Attachments dialog box.
2. In the Attachments dialog box, click on the Attach Location (URL) button.
   Please Specify a Location to Attach. Type the URL for the Web page in the text box and click on OK.
   
3. Netscape lists the URL in the Attachments dialog box. Repeat steps 2 and 3 if you want to attach more URLs. Then click on OK.
4. In a moment, Netscape displays the URL in the Attachment box in the Message Composition window. Click on the Send button.
5. If you visit a Web page you want to send to someone, you can send it right from the page by choosing File | Mail Document.
6. Netscape displays the Message Composition window. It uses the title of the Web page as the subject line, it attaches the URL to the message, and it inserts a hypertext link to the page in the body of the message.
7. Fill in the Mail To and Cc (optional) text boxes, type a message (you can type above and below the link), and click on the Send button.
