If clicking the link does not open an Editorial Manager
window, your e-mail program may have inserted some spaces and/or line markers
into the link. Please open a browser window manually and copy and paste the
entire link from the email into the url address box. The link starts with the
letters "http" and ends with the letters "rev=X" (where X represents a revision
number such as 0, 1, 2, etc.) Note that the end of the link may be shown on a
different line in the e-mail, and may be shown in a different color than the
beginning of the link. The entire link must be copied and pasted into the
browser in order for the correct Editorial Manager window to be displayed.
After copying the link into the url address box, you must also remove any
spaces and line markers (e.g. > or >>) by using the delete or backspace keys on
your keyboard.
