I've had a site for college alumni which has always included AOLIM and ICQ names posted (opt in of course). In an effort to add more IM options I did away with text and went with a hyperlinked graphics. (example) Here are the HTML hyperlink codes I used...

AIM
aim:goim?screenname=SCREENNAME

ICQ
http://public.icq.com/public/panels/respondpanel/links/message.html?9999999

YAHOO
http://edit.yahoo.com/config/send_webmesg?.target=SCREENNAME

Now here's my question: What linking code can I use for MSN Messenger? I can't find anything for weblinks to send people MSN Messages. (All I can find is program development coding). Anybody know what the link should be for MSN Messenger?

Thanks

I do not think MSN has this functionality right now. The best you can do is link to their profile. Sorry.
