Fix email address right-click ability

Opened this issue · 6 comments

The consensus on the call this week was that the contact email address should be right-clickable to copy the address itself, rather than e.g. a gmail URL. It appears (as far as I can tell) that we're still doing something in the CSS to break this. (This behavior might be different, depending -- I'm seeing the breakage when using chrome and logged into gmail in another tab.)

For comparison, try right-clicking the same email address in the comments at the top of #50 -- that's the way we were talking about making it work during the phone call. It should simply copy the email address into the clipboard.

Please provide steps to reproduce.

Please provide the steps to reproduce, @stevegt. I see it working.

In my installation of Chrome on Linux, there is no "copy email address" option in the context menu. All I get is a "copy link address" option, which copies this to the clipboard:

https://mail.google.com/a/t7a.org/mail/?view=cm&fs=1&tf=1&to=info@nationofmakers.us

By way of comparison, the following link right here, on github, does give me a "copy email address" option in the context menu: info@nationofmakers.us

good

I get the "Copy email address" option in incognito, so that will help narrow it down. Reassigning to myself 'cause I'm going to need to chase down why it's doing that, and make sure our CSS isn't confusing a popular extension.

I'm pretty confident there's no difference between the two implementations. Please let me know what you find.
