HTML - Setting Newsletter Campaign In Mailchimp -- Urgent
Hi Everyone !!!
Need help on setting newsletter in MailChimp. [Online resources would be helpful] Have created HTML using inline style but when i upload this into MailChimp campaign, it gets distorted and does not show background image in full. I am using Microsoft office outlook 2007 client.... Sometime its shows properly on Gmail... I want it to make compatible with outlook 2007 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Awaiting to hear back from you. Regards, Vishal N. Similar TutorialsHi! I am really new at HTML, I know a few things but lets just assume I know nothing. I have a mailchimp email account and I pasted the code from their site for the email form box, which goes on my site. I have a basic question. Is there anyway I can center the subscribe button at the bottom? Or perhaps can I make it so the entire code centers. The way it is now, everything is to the left. I hope im making sense. My gut tells me there is some simple line of code I could stick in here. Maybe someone could tell me? Here is the code: <!-- Begin MailChimp Signup Form --> <link href="http://cdn-images.mailchimp.com/embedcode/slim-081711.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> <style type="text/css"> #mc_embed_signup{background:#fff; clear:left; font:14px Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; width:1300px;} /* Add your own MailChimp form style overrides in your site stylesheet or in this style block. We recommend moving this block and the preceding CSS link to the HEAD of your HTML file. */ </style> <div id="mc_embed_signup"> <form action="http://Unemployment.us2.list-manage.com/subscribe/post?u=93dc541310772925d048634cc&id=8f6690bd90" method="post" id="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" name="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" class="validate" target="_blank"> <label for="mce-EMAIL">Subscribe to the email list...</label> <input type="email" value="" name="EMAIL" class="email" id="mce-EMAIL" placeholder="email address" required> <div class="clear"><input type="submit" value="Subscribe" name="subscribe" id="mc-embedded-subscribe" class="button"> </div> </form> </div> <!--End mc_embed_signup--> Hi all, I'm really struggling with getting my e-newsletters to view correctly (as they do in my web browser) in the actual mail message. I usually code the page and when it's done, load it onto our server, then open the page, copy the content and paste it into the new mail message. This works fine, except when your html page has layers or flash clips in it, everything goes completely crazy. It seems like the layers are the big problems, spacing goes out and the layers aren't actually in the "newsletter" anymore, they load at the top of the page, almost seperate from the rest of the file. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks so much. Bees Hey, For the first time I need to prepare a newsletter template for a company. I read a lot about this in web but I coun't understand one thing. It should be used repeatedly. So how can I make a Html template to be use repeatedly? May be the programmer will use my template and make it reusable? Somebody know about this? Thanks! I'd like to have a newsletter opt-in, but I don't want to move the person to a php page to confirm they're in the system. Is it possible to add them from the same page, and without a page refresh, show them they're added? I have created an html newsletter which is just about ready. I am trying to add a header image to top cell of table however when I preview the table expands and I get a bunch of whitespace. Image is set width and in edit mode appears fine. I am using Sharepoint Designer and Web Expression 2 but not luck removing all the whitespace.

This thing has to be sent via e-mail so all the styling has to be done inline I have pretty much everything right, except for the background. I want to use a gradient that aligns to the bottom (bottom of content, not bottom of viewport) over the entire width of the screen (5px wide, repeat-x) However: when I go to the page, the gradient is in the bottom of my viewport. When I scroll down, I go below that gradient. Anybody have any idea how I can get that gradient down? (so far only IE6 behaves the right way, Safari and Firefox do not) tnx how can i put an option in my html code to subscribe to a newsletter with only two field boxes for the name and email address? I wish to then have this info sent to a default emaill address. 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 I want to make a page on my website where someone can enter there email address and it will auto add it to my mailing list. And another place on the website where they can enter there email so unsubscribe to it. I do not have anything to start me of with this. E.g Database. Thanks your help I have a newsletter sent out via email to subscribers. IT has a table of contents with all the headings at beginning of the page. Here is my problem. I wanted the subscriber who receives the email to be able to click the heading and it takes them directly to the paragraph without all the scrolling. I did try this ( the original word doc you could do it and then i transfered it to html,but it opened the heading in the browser as a separate link. Its quite a long newsletter and as it is they scroll and scroll. Any advice? thanks. Hi, I'm a HTML newbie (have some programming experience though), so please forgive me if my question is maybe unclear or naive. I've managed to build a newsletter that displays nicely in the most-used webmail clients and offline clients. For personalization I can add form fields (like: name) to the html code that graphicmail will fill with the indivual recipient's data (like: Bob) on sending out the newsletter. To add an "Unsubscribe" link to the newsletter, graphicmail recommends to insert this code: <DIV><LABEL class=FormField data="Unsubscribe">Unubscribe</LABEL></DIV> This results in a simple: Unsubscribe text in the newsletter. If the reader clicks on it, the unsubscribe webpage is opened. I would like to achive the same functionality but with something different than the LABEL tag, since this plain text "Unsubscribe" doesn't fit the design of the newsletter. Ideally I'd like to be able to use an image that when clicked provides the same functionality as the label tab does. Sorry for the confused description. Thanks for your help. Mark is there a way of removing link underline without CSS? Hi there, I have the almost impossible task to create a newsletter (text + pics) that contains a background image and needs to be distributed using Microsoft Business Contact Manager (Microsoft Outlook add-on). So, can you tell me if background images are 100% good html or not? If yes what could I be doing wrong (CSS, links to images...) Please help Marco Hey, I built an email newsletter for a friend of mine using GoLive! It was fairly simple he wanted a header graphic and a green box on the left where he could put information about classes he was teaching/things relating to the articles in the email newsletter. Problem is... is that none of the ways I found to build it would come through safely in any email client, be it gmail, thunderbird, or otherwise. I was hoping to find one of two things: a good template we could paste his stuff into, or a free program that we could build his newsletter that would be generally readable in most mail clients. What advice would you offer to me, I'm not extensively familiar with HTML again, i just recently got back into it after a break (too long, cuz i know little to nothing now except how to pick apart and analyze code, just not how to build from scratch!) Hence why I was using Adobe GoLive. If you could recommend a template or a program that would be free, that'd be fine... otherwise any comments or info would be great. thanks. For some reason one part of my table isn't formatting correctly. I believe I've set it up correctly but one slice is not in the correct place. Any suggestions as to why? http://www.essencia-spa.com/december...l%20blast.html my code is easily viewable by View -> View Source EDIT: SOLVED. Just solved the issue with a colspan issue. Thanks to anyone who took a look at this. I have taken over a newsletter and was attempting to recreate a menu item using Dreamweaver used by the previous author in the newsletter menu that she created using constant contact and was successful of course on my computer, but when I sent out the newsletter, if one used the a href link instead of being taken to the document a name link as intended it began a search on the recipients computer. Any suggestions. Thanks |
