How do you use a 'mailto' link?

I don't see any reference from the code we made in the previous videos

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
  <head>
    <title>My Page</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h3>Design & Development</h3>
    <p>Contact me at <a href="#">this email</a>.</p>
    <p>© 2017</p>
  </body>
</html>

Hi Nicole,

If you jump back 2 videos, you will find the reference code you are looking for :) Just add the mailto: inside your href="".
