embedding email address in

[Scott Hodson <sc...@ubero.com>]

I have a contact bean, which stores contact info.  While displaying
contact info I want to show the e-mail address as well as having a
mailto: hyperlink to the email address.

<logic:notEmpty name="contact" property="email">
  <html:link href="mailto:????">
    <bean:write name="contact" property="email" filter="true" />
  </html:link>
</logic:notEmpty>

What do I replace ???? with?  I've tried all of the following and none
work

<logic:notEmpty name="contact" property="email">
  <html:link href="mailto:<%=contact.getEmail()%>">
    <bean:write name="contact" property="email" filter="true" />
  </html:link>
</logic:notEmpty>

...and...

<logic:notEmpty name="contact" property="email">
  <html:link href="mailto:<bean:write name='contact' property='email'
filter='true' />">
    <bean:write name="contact" property="email" filter="true" />
  </html:link>
</logic:notEmpty>

...and...

<logic:notEmpty name="contact" property="email">
  <bean:define id="emailAddress" name="contact" property="email" />
  <html:link href="mailto:<%=emailAddress%>" />">
    <bean:write name="contact" property="email" filter="true" />
  </html:link>
</logic:notEmpty>


I'm not sure what else to try.  I don't want to have to create my own
tag lib just to do this, and I don't want to have to create a whole new
getXXX() on my bean to return a proper mailto href, that would be
putting presentation logic in a bean, which violates MVC.
