This isn't php.
Ask in the javascript forum or html.

Give the HTML version of the code.

There's still PHP there. View Source in the browser to see what it appears like client-side.

Even if you fix it, how will you know it works with other mail clients?
Mailto links are not recommended, since they rely on the user having a mail client set-up with an account that they can use. That will not always be the case.
