    Hi there,

    I just want to use a couple of styles to manage the type and include the style sheet in the email,
    But after getting email in my Gmail inbox, It is showing email with all html code.(All tags & styles)

    Can anyone let me know, how to use css in email?

    Have a look on code bellow:

    $to=$data[2];
    $subject ="New Newsletter from couponguru.com";
    $headers = 'From: couponguru@gmail.com' . "\r\n" .
    'Reply-To: couponguru@gmail.com' . "\r\n" .
    'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();


    $message ="<html>
    <body>
    <center>
    <table>
    <tr>
    <td>
    <div style='border:0px dotted gray;
    width:450px;
    padding:15px;
    margin-left:30px;
    float:left;
    font-weight: normal;
    font-size: 12px;
    color: #01165c;
    font-family: Verdana;
    text-decoration: none;'>

    You need to add the content-type header along with your script which would tell the browser to display it as html.

    $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";

    update this way:
    
$headers = 'From: couponguru@gmail.com' . "\r\n" .
'Reply-To: couponguru@gmail.com' . "\r\n" .
"X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion()."\r\n";

$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
    PHP:
    Also make the message complete HTML with <html><body> tags
