So I used web (' ','-helpbrowser') to open up an HTML file I wrote. Everything else seems to work fine except I have a piece of my html page where I do a link with a mailto like this:
if % <a href="mailto:person@email.com?subject=I have a suggestion!"> blah blah </a>
end
(without the if end % stuff - I cant get it to show up in here otherwise)
This works fine when I test out the page in internet explorer but when I click on the link in the matlab web browser it puts "mailto:person@email.com?subject=I have a suggestion!" in the To line of the email. Is there another way to do this?

Single quotes are required around I have a suggestion! This should work:
web mailto:person@email.com?subject='I have a suggestion!'
