Dynamic anchor tag problem "@ OR @" causing function to failin IE

C

CES

All,

Could someone please look at this and tell me what's wrong... the function works properly in FireFox but in IE onmouseover it replaces the innerHTML. So the original html:

at (e-mail address removed) Thank you for your consideration.

becomes

at mailto:[email protected]:?SUBJECT=Request for additional information - Package id : /*JS var*/ Thank you for your consideration.

I know the problem is the @ sign because if I remove it the function works properly, but even encoding it doesn’t seem to work I get the same issue.

Any Help would be appreciated Thanks in advance - CES

function mailTO(sender){
document.getElementById('id_' + sender).setAttribute("href", "mailto:info" + "@" + "test.com:?SUBJECT=Request for additional information - Package id : ");
}

<a id="id_emailMe2" class="noExpandNormal" href="#" onmouseover="mailTO('emailMe2')">[email protected]</a>
