why does this:

NavigateUrl='mailto: <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"Email") %>'

give this:

'mailto: <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"Email") %>'

and this: NavigateUrl='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"Email") %>'

give this:

'email@a...'


Full code:


<asp:TemplateColumn>
<HeaderStyle CssClass="ContactsHeader"></HeaderStyle>
<HeaderTemplate>Email</HeaderTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:HyperLink CssClass="ContactsItem"  NavigateUrl='mailto:<%#
DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"Email") %>' Target="_blank"
Runat=server><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"Email")
%></asp:HyperLink>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateColumn>
