mail in php

[Merrill Oveson]

I've code some code that sends an html email that has an embedded link.
in this case the link is:

<a href=" http://www.strategisfinancial.com">www.strategisfinancial.com</a>

Everything works except when I recieve the email and click on the link I get

http://www.strategisfinancial.com%22/

what's with the %22, and how do I get rid of it?

my code is as follows:

$body .= "<a href=\"
http://www.strategisfinancial.com\">www.strategisfinancial.com</a>";

thanks

Merrill
