HTML - Creating Html Email Newsletter
Similar TutorialsHello 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, I am currently creating a HTML e-newsletter, and need the frame/template to essentially remain static. In other words, when the recepient alters the size of their preview/display panel in their email program (eg Outlook), the column widths/spacing and text size remains the same. Could anyone please advise as to how this is done? Thanks! 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. 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? And i am having a problem. Here is an example i made for the problem. It is being made my someone who has no knowledge of html in dreamweaver and then the code being tweaked by someone who knows html to be perfect. A sample line of code that comes up is this. <!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"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <img width="195" height="755" src="file:///C|/Users/dog/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Dreamweaver CS4/en_US/OfficeImageTemp/clip_image002_0003.png" align="left" hspace="12" vspace="10" alt="Text Box: blah blah. " /> </body> </html> When i try to test emailing the file the picture does not show up. I know the reason. It is because it is on my computer and it cant find it. But the question is how do i get around this? The pictures and pieces of the newsletter are being made in a combination of Microsoft Word and Photoshop. Would i have to upload each picture to the internet and do it that way? Or is there a way i can imbed the pictures into the newsletter? I am using this through a yahoo email address using a program that allows you to send emails with html content through emails that do not allow html, such as yahoo. I appreciate any help. Thanks in advanced.

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. I've been working on an email blast in slices for the first time without the use of tables, yet I haven't been able to align the left bar with the other components on the right. How can I align these components so that they are all together? <!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"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <div style="width:550px;"> <div><img src="http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/9634/bottombox119.gif" width="1" height="31" /><img src="http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/7985/bottombox120.gif" width="549" height="31" /></div> <div style="float:right; clear:left; margin-right:0px; "><img src="http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/7985/bottombox120.gif" width="20" height="1218" /></div> <div style="float:right; clear:left; margin-right:0px; "> <img src="http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/2510/bottombox105.gif" width="311" height="158" /></div> <div style="float:right; margin-right:0px; "> <img src="http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/5752/bottombox104.gif" width="197" height="118" /></div> <div style="float:right; clear:left; margin-right:0px; "><img src="http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/3859/bottombox108.gif" width="311" height="165" /></div> <div style="float:right; clear:left; margin-right:0px; position:relative;"> <img src="http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/7371/bottombox107.gif" width="197" height="205" /></div> <div style="float:right; clear:left; margin-right:0px; "><img src="http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/2279/bottombox109.gif" width="243" height="220" /></div> <div ><img src="http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/7985/bottombox120.gif" width="22" height="1218" /></div> </div> </body> </html> For some reason one part of my table isn't formatting correctly.

The problem I have is that when I open the newsletter in Outlook it does not look like the original web page newsletter. Does anyone have advice as to how to implement this functionality to have the email newsletter look like the web page news letter. Any suggestions recommendations or advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks In Advance. Hi everyone, I've been searching around the web trying to find out how I can send using Outlook a html and text email newsletter automatically. I am quite happy creating html only newsletters, and text ones for that matter, but I have been digging and believe that by using multi-part code I can send to both and the recipients email client "allows" whichever version to be displayed - does this sound right? I'm hoping to simply create the html with the relevent mime references and boundaries (dont know what they are but have seen them on enough Google'd pages to know that they mean something!) and then copy and paste into Outlook - the newsletter is only going out to a few people at a time. Any suggestions or advice would be very greatly appreciated. Regards Allan I have created an html newsletter which is just about ready.

Currently it gives me the option to send a message in either rich text or plain text, but I see no option for HTML.

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 Hello all, I am currently building an HTML newsletter complete with graphics and it is all set up and appears fine in my IE and other web browsers. However, now I want to actually place this HTML and graphics in the actual e-mail form and test it. This may sound like like a stupid question, but does anyone know how to do this? For the life of me I can't think of any way to actually embed an .html file (or just the HTML coding) inside of an email and have it appear inside of say.. a Yahoo, MSN, google, or outllook express email form. I need to be able to do this to test an send my e-newsletter. I've searched the net for tutorials on how to do this but have come up empty handed. Any ideas on how to go about this? Thanks in advance! Hi, I am new to HTML coding and I would like to create a new search box which tells if that particular item can be found or not. Lets take an example of Cash on Delivery. Now there are close to 1500 pin codes where the option of cash on delivery is available. My question is how can I create a form which accepts a pin code and gives the result if the cash on delivery is available or not.

Hello all. I am new to this forum and really need some help creating a form. I am trying to help a friend out for a Charity Golf Tournament. I have some of the code completed already and cant figure out a few things. Basically the form I have created already has a drop down box for Golfers 1-4. I need help creating the rest of the form so when a person selects (from the drop down) either 1,2,3,or 4, then the form will display golfer information fields such as Golfer Name, Address, Email, Phone # only for the amount of golfers selected.
