HTML - Just Another Html Email Problem
Oh man.... I have had a hell of a FIRST time coding for an html email newsletter for a local band. I first had an idea of making the bottom section of this email with images and then using an image map for the links to the Amazon, Itunes, Store and etc...
But then once I'm done coding the image maps I send a sample email and links don't work. So I do a little research and supposedly image maps are sketchy and rarely work especially in Gmail <---- which is what I am using. Soooo..... My other approach to this problem was to slice it up and make Photoshop CS4 do the work. Which works great when you view it in a browser, BUT once you send it as a e-mail it adds all sort of spacing around images, and even makes the images larger in size. So somebody have any thoughts on this? THanks! Here is the link to the email up on the server...Working perfectly until i send it as an email: http://gordonavenue.com/emails/tanta..._tuesdays.html Here is an image of what the sliced up part looks like when I send it as an email [IMG][/IMG] Similar TutorialsI have created a simple HTML email form on my linux server. Seems simple enough, yet every time I test it, Outlook tries to open and my form is never emailed. Does anyone know how to correct this? Here is my code: <CENTER> <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="mailto:test@yahoo.com" ENCTYPE="text/plain"> Subject:<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="username"> <BR> <INPUT NAME="email" TYPE="hidden" VALUE="<?php echo $_SESSION['email']; ?>"> <BR> Question <BR> <TEXTAREA NAME="COMMENTS" ROWS="10" WRAP="hard"> </TEXTAREA> <INPUT NAME="redirect" TYPE="hidden" VALUE="gm.php"> <INPUT NAME="NEXT_URL" TYPE="hidden" VALUE="gm.php"> <BR> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Send"> </FORM> </CENTER> Also, if anyon knows how to create this form in php, that would work as well. I have run into an issue email html code. It seems that some or all email clients use Quoted-Printable encoding when display messages. Quoted-Printable encoding will change the = the 3d= whick for most tags is not an issue. However, our cart provider uses a form for our add to cart, view cart etc.. and cannot interpret the Quoted-Printable encoding. What happens is the tag in there form ID="cartID" is turned into ID3D="cartID" when displayed in an email client... Which fails on our cart providers server. Any help, ideas or suggestions? Hi guys, I created a email template for company usage using html, i put company`s logo in it, it works perfect with outlook and windows live mail, but when i open that email template in browsers, i see .jpg file at the end of the mail message. Is there any way to get rid of this? Thanks. here is a screenshot of my problem: http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/5672/16715830.jpg Hi, so I'm trying to make this e-mail newsletter. It's entirely images, tables and text. So no javascript, just plain stuff. I tried attaching it as a signiture file and I had trouble sending it. It also didn't come out right. I'm trying to avoid using a software. Its basically just a block of HTML I need to show up as the only content in an email. If you just put HTML into a email text field, it just shows the HTML code in the email as text. Any ideas? can anyone help me with this, it looks ok but it wont email Code: <form action="mailto:byp_webmaster@hotmail.co.uk" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="Website contact form"> <table border="1" align="center"> <td> <center>Your Name:</center><input type="text" align="center" size="40" maxlength="50" name="name"> <br><br> <center>Your Email:</center><input type="text" align="center" size="40" maxlength="50" name="Email"> <br><br> <center>Message:</center><textarea cols="50" rows="4" name="Message" align="center"></textarea><br> <center><input type="submit" value="Send Email" ></center> </td> </table> </form> I'm having trouble using html email. Everything works fine except the link I put in it. I need to have a link parents will click on which will take them to a webpage which will automatically register them. When I test it (on my Mac - sorry ... a real computer) it works great, but the parents of my students say the link doesn't work. I tested the email again by sending it to one of my fake yahoo.com email accounts, and sure enough, the link was NOT active. Here is what it looked like: <a href="register.php?id=1712">click here</a> Can someone tell me what I might be doing wrong. Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to send an html email with yahoo? thanks Hi Everyone, I just created an email template that i want to send out and i am getting lots of errors when I'm testing it. All my images are showing up as attatchments, Can i prevent this? My page doesn't work across all browsers, spacing issues in gmail, hotmail is giving me and extended height in a few places. I have a search box as well that I want to include- is that a bad idea? How can avoid this / fix these problems. If requested i will include my code. Thanks hi all, something I thought would be simple is, well, not so simple for me!! all that I want to do is send a complete html web page as an ordinary email so that people viewing it can click on the existing links and buttons.(for payments etc) I have tried sending it several times and on aol none of the headings/gif's n jpg's are displayed, using squirrel mail, some of the links are highlighted, however, some are missing. using outlook, well, no comment!!! surely there is an easy (hehe) way to send a whole hyml web page as an email? many thanks for all help, Ed hi im not sure if this is the right section but ive been looking around and cant find what i need so im asking for help. i have a html form like so Code: <form name="riskform" method="post" enctype="text/plain" > <div id="formtop">Name: <br> <input type="text" name="Name" /><br /><br /> Company: <br> <input type="text" name="Company" /><br /><br /> Location:<br /><input type="text" name="Location" /> <br><br /></div><br /> <h2>Risk Selection</h2> <div id="list"> <label><input type="checkbox" name="Extream Weather" />Extream Weather</label><br /><br /> <label><input type="checkbox" name="Confined Space" />Confined Space</label><br /><br /> <label><input type="checkbox" name="Traffic" />Traffic</label><br /><br /> <label><input type="checkbox" name="Slip/Trip" />Slip/Trip</label><br /><br /> <label><input type="checkbox" name="Noise" />Noise</label><br /><br /> <label><input type="checkbox" name="Falling Object" />Falling Objects</label><br /><br /> <label><input type="checkbox" name="Machinary" />Machinery</label><br /><br /> <label><input type="checkbox" name="Equiptment" />Equiptment</label><br /><br /> <label><input type="checkbox" name="Construction Work" />Construction Work</label><br /><br /> </div> <div id="sub"><input type='submit' name='Submit' value='Submit'/></div><br /><br /> </form> and what i want to happen is when the user clicks submit this form is emailed to my site admin, ive looked at mailto: but i want the page to be email as a page view the same as how it looks if you print the page. hope that makes sense hey guys im after some simple help i think. i have created a .psd for a html email i wish to send. i have sliced it up to how i would like it and i created the automated html.

I would like to know in the email that I send, I need the html to pick up some dynamic content from another website and when the email is being displayed, it needs to show that dynamic content I could have used iframe in the html template - but that would work on websites, but not on emails. Is there a way anyone can suggest wherein I can achieve this? Thanks I have to send an HTML email, but I'm missing something. I have my HTML page encoded, and I put Outlook on HTML mode, but when I send the email, the receiver still only gets a bunch of code, not the nice-looking HTML Layout we've worked so hard on. I'm opening the HTML's source code, copy/pasting it in the body of the email. Obviously this is wrong. Can someone please tell me how it's supposed to be done? And yes I know HTML emails are evil, no I'm not a spammer, and I know I'm facing an army of filters. But if someone could point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it. Hi, I want to ask is there any way to send email form html?? like php mail() is there something in php. Or sending by smtp???? everytime i try to make this my html email, i get bad table padding and spacing but it looks good on webpages but not emails Code: <html>

Hi i am looking for a bit of help creating an email form. I would like it to contain a table with 4 columns per row - the middle two cells would contain a drop down menu each. the form would have a send button which would send the results in an easy to read format to a pre-defined address. ideally it would work on hotmail, yahoo etc. i would be really grateful for any hints and tips anyone could give many thanks Hello to all. I have designed a newsletter in html that i am ready to email out to people. Only thing is the client wants the image to be displayed instantly with no attachments. So basically embedded into the email. Does anyone know how to do this? Reading other people's comments i am sure there is a way. If i insert the html ito the email itbecomes an attachment which i do not want? PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks Gray Hi was wondering if anyone could help me in the right direction with html emails? I'm not doing something right and I dunno what it is! AGH! Anyhoo, would really appreciate your help if you can spare a mo.... I am issued with a .pdf, which I need to re-create as an html email. The graphics ned to look the same, and I have to make the text editable, so I have split the image into a table, which, when tested in Firefox, Explorer and Safari, work just splendidly! The table is only 600px wide, as I hear that emails should be no wider than 650. All the links work, there is no padding on any of the cells and the page displays perfectly in all browsers. However.... when the client put its on their server, customers who have hotmail, gmail or outlook7 accounts see a displaced image... the table is everywhere and is filled with white-space! Everything has to be built in plain HTML. I am not able to use styles, as the clients server does not support them. Does anybody have any idea what could be happening? If you need more info, I will do what I can to help! Thanks Hi All, Does anyone know if a DOCTYPE declaration is necessary for HTML emails? I'm trying to improve our HTML email system and am wondering how this affects HTML email if at all, For example, all our emails state: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> Should we switch to simply <html> to start the email? Or does it not matter? Just looking for some info on this... |
