Have you tried using an onclick event?

i tried using the code as follows but its not opening any window...

  ht.Write("<a href=\"#\" onClick=\"openWin()\">clickme</a>");
 

the above code is one of the statements in a mail sending block...this code makes a link "clickme" to appear in the mail which i get, but upon clicking that its not opening a window....

Have you tried using an onclick event?
