PHP - Sending Html Message
why does this code not show the user a link, rather just what looks like a link?:
Code: [Select] // message $message = ' <html> <head> <title>Your New Account - Activation Required</title> </head> <body> <p>Please click on the link below to continue with activating your account:</p> <a href"http://www.mywebsite.com/verify?activationCode=$activationKey">Click here to activate your account.</a> <p> If you have received this message in error, please ignore this. </body> </html> '; Similar Tutorialshey everyone. I'm working on a site (built almost from scratch) and i used a book which implements a design i'm not all too confident about, but i'll try it out. Anywho there is one thing that bugs me, and that is that I don't know how to properly setup error messages. For example, the login page does this: * gather data * send $_POST data to process.inc.php * process.inc.php handles the object implementation, and sends you to the dashboard if your login is successful and returns you to the login page if the login attempt is unsuccessful However, on the last one, if I have to send the user back to the page because of a failed attempt, i'd like to display an error message, but I'm not clear on the best way of doing this considering the request isn't handled by PHP_SELF. I hope I made sense. If not, I'll gladly try to clear up any confusion, and thanks in advance Hi, I have this script, it all works fine until it gets to the message sending point. What I want is if the $registerMail variable is set to yes then send the message and redirect user to login page, if not then just redirect the user to the login page. However once registered, the user is sent to the login page and the message isnt sent. Code: [Select] <?php include_once("data/server.php"); function decode_variable(&$siteName) { $siteName = urldecode($siteName); $siteName = str_replace('%20',' ',$siteName); return $siteName; } decode_variable($siteName); $registerMail = $_GET['regMail']; $password1 = $_POST['password1']; $password2 = $_POST['password2']; // Get Posted Variables $username = $_POST['username']; $firstname = $_POST['firstname']; $lastname = $_POST['lastname']; $address = $_POST['address']; $town = $_POST['town']; $county = $_POST['county']; $postcode = $_POST['postcode']; $email = $_POST['email']; $approved = "no"; $IP = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; if ($password1 != $password2) { echo "Your passwords did not match, please go back and register again"; } else { // MySQL Connection include_once("data/mysql.php"); $mysqlPassword = (base64_decode($mysqlpword)); $con = mysql_connect("$localhost", "$mysqlusername", "$mysqlPassword") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("$dbname", $con) or die(mysql_error()); $query = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS count FROM members WHERE username='$username'"; $results = mysql_query($query) or die ("Error reading from database"); $existingUsername = mysql_fetch_array($results); if ($existingUsername['count'] > 0) { echo "I'm sorry our database already contains that username please choose a new username to continue.

I'm programming a web game, and one of the things that happens is that an email gets sent out when it's your turn in one of your games. This is working fine and all but I can not for the life of me figure out how to send email with html in it that is universally accepted. What I've been doing so far works for gmail, hotmail, etc. but for some reason breaks entirely when someone opens an email with a client like Thunderbird or Outlook. Here's what I've been doing: $headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'From: Admin <admin@examplesite.com>' . "\r\n"; $mail_body = '<html><body>It is now your turn in the game. The game can be viewed <a href="examplesite.com">here</a>.</body></html>'; mail("user@examplesite.com",'New Turn',$mail_body,$headers); Is there something I'm missing? I have literally no experience using Outlook or the like so I don't know if it's a problem with them or if I'm doing something wrong. I'm having an issue with sending HTML Emails. Here is my code, but nothing comes out right when it gets emailed. And my email client is set to view HTML. I can view other HTML emails just fine, but not these. Here is my code to send the email, just wondering whats wrong with it. Thanks for any suggestions. Code: [Select] $full_email = $frm_to . '@scotthermanfitness.com'; //define the receiver of the email $to = $full_email; //define the subject of the email $subject = 'Form Submit - SHF ' . $to_text . ' (' . $frm_name . ')'; //create a boundary string. It must be unique //so we use the MD5 algorithm to generate a random hash $random_hash = md5(date('r', time())); //define the headers we want passed. Note that they are separated with \r\n $headers = "From: " . $frm_email . "\r\nReply-To: " . $frm_email; //add boundary string and mime type specification //$headers .= "\r\nContent-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=\"PHP-alt-".$random_hash."\""; $headers .= " Content-type: text/html\r\n"; //begin of HTML message $message = $frm_content; //send the email $mail_sent = @mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers ); Hi Guys, I've got a contact form set up, where the user can submit their design they have created on the site. The file uploads to a directory titled "Uploads" and the idea would then be set up a link within an HTML style E-Mail, I've had a look at MIME-TYPE on the php.net manual. I've got the form to work to an extent, however the PHP variables are not being echo'ed out and the E-Mail looks like this : Quote <html> <body> <b>New Design by $name </b> <p>Contact Details...</p> Telephone : $telephone<br /> E-Mail : $email<br /> Design : <a href=http://wwww.mysite.co.uk/Mail%20Test/uploads/$upfile>$upfile</a> </body> </html> New EasyFluid Design Added My Code is as follows : Code: [Select] <?php $to = ""; // User E-Mail $subject = "New Design Added"; // The Subject //$target_path = "uploads/"; // $target_path = $target_path . basename( $_FILES['design']['name']); //if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['design']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) { //} extract($_POST); $from = "From: {$_POST['name']} <{$_POST['email']}>"; // From (the field named "name" and the email field named "email" //Handle the Image $upfile = 'uploads/' .$_FILES['design']['name'] ; if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES['design']['tmp_name'])) { if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES['design']['tmp_name'], $upfile)) { echo 'Problem : Could not move file to destination directory'; exit; } } $message = ' <html> <body> <b>New Design by $name </b> <p>Contact Details...</p> Telephone : $telephone<br /> E-Mail : $email<br /> Design : <a href=http://wwww.mysite.co.uk/Mail%20Test/uploads/$upfile>$upfile</a> </body> </html> '; // To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set $headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' .

Every single one results in the html markup itself being displayed as text, not as a styled page. I have many emails from companies where no matter what client I view it on I see a fully styled webpage with links and pics. How can this be achieved with php? Hi I built a really simple customer review form https://kickasssoftwear.uk/dev/reviews.html (it's only been optimised for mobile view so far) and it works using the php mail script on this page https://kickasssoftwear.uk/dev/empty2.php - the emails are being sent to me and the format of the emails is OK, and the form redirects to the empty2 page with a mailsent message in the address bar. I know I can leave that page as is and write a nice thank you message in the html - but what I really want to do is have the customers name there too, Thanks 'name' your review has been sent, but I can't get it to work - it's been 4 whole days now and I really need to eat & sleep! Please if anyone has suggestions or advice for a noob, please help. Thanks Hi Everyone, I am trying to send email with the mail() function as per instructions at: http://php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php without success.

I installed phpmailer recently and have been able to send mail with attachments without a problem, but I am trying to make the body of the email HTML. Unfortunately each attempt the formatting is not preserved. I tried copying the same style that I use when I generate the same report to a web page, but it isnt translating to an html email. I have included the code that is relevant. Any glaring oversights? $htmlBody = '<html><head><title>Calls Yesterday</title></head>'; $htmlBody .='<style type="text/css"> body { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; } th { font-weight: bold; text-align: left; } td, th { padding: 15px 15px 15px 15px; width: 75px; vertical-align: top; text-align: left; } .outputData2 { margin-left: -10px; margin-right: -10px; width: 500px; } .outputData2 th { white-space: nowrap; text-align: left; padding-right: 10px; } .outputData2 td { white-space: nowrap; text-align: left; } a { text-decoration: none; color: #000; } strong { font-weight: bold; } </style> <br />'; $htmlBody .= '<div style="width: 640px; height: 500px; margin: 10px 0 0 0; padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #e3e3e3; overflow: auto" ><br />'; $htmlBody .= '<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center" class="outputdata2"><br />'; // $htmlBody .= '<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" th="font-weight: bold; width: 25px; padding: 5px,5px,5px,5px; padding-right: 10px; text-align: left; white-space: nowrap;" td="padding: 5px,5px,5px,5px; width: 25px; text-align: left; vertical-align: top; white-space: nowrap;">'; $htmlBody .= '<th>Campaign</th><th>Number of Calls</th><th>Total Call Duration</th><th>Avg Call Duration</th><th>Call Status</th><br />'; // Setup mail class, recipients and body $mailer->AddAddress('me@mail.com', 'PHP Novice'); $mailer->Subject = 'Calls on '.$currentDate.''; $mailer->Body = $htmlBody; $mailer->IsHTML(true); $mailer->AltBody = $textBody; $mailer->AddAttachment($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/dashboardOld/campaignFiles/'.$prevClient."_".$currentDate.'.csv', ''.$prevClient."_".$currentDate.'.csv'); $mailer->AddAttachment($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/dashboardOld/campaignFiles/'.$prevClient."_".$currentDate.'.json', ''.$prevClient."_".$currentDate.'.json'); $mailer->Send(); $mailer->ClearAddresses(); $mailer->ClearAttachments(); $mailer->IsHTML(false); I even resorted to include the style sheet in what i passed to phpmailer because the formatting wasn't working when i coded the html settings withing $htmlBody originally.

It executes a specified SQL query against a MySQL database server 3.) Formats the output of the result set into an html table 4.) Sends the result to an email address I am not a programmer :-( I have been using the code with great success for some time, but it has the following bug: On certain email clients it displays as text and not as an html email. Especially on mac operated systems and iPhones/iPADs etc. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance 0_o Does anyone know of a way to use PHP to create and email a HTML file? I was attempting to use the standard PHP mail function to pass a HTML string to the message variable, but mail clients have a pretty hard time rendering HTML/CSS correctly. My thought was, if I could take my HTML string and turn it into a file and attach it to a email message the user would be able to open the file in there default browser which would render without issues. Just for the record my HTML string also contains PHP variables, so it must be processes before being sent. So far my research suggests using the PEAR library for sending mail with attachments, but I am only finding literature on how to attach a file already existing on the server to an email message. I am having trouble finding a way to create a HTML file on the fly and attach it to an email message. Has anyone had a similar problem? Is there a different way to accomplish what I am attempting to do here? |
