Default Open link automatically in email

Hi,

Is it possible to send a link by email and once the user opens the email to have the link open automatically? The link isn't powerpoint.It's a link to a site.

Thanks

Ditto. Anything that changes or autoloads is a javascript thing. You literally can't do it in HTML. And scripting is so "troublesome" security-wise that email programs (and anything else) are designed to shut down those behaviors. That was one of the tricks hackers used to spread viruses a long time ago and it has been pretty well sealed off even to Javascript masters.
