I have a slaes page I have done for a friend. He wants to send the details of it out to a lot of email addresses. It has a few images and stuff on it. When I tyr and send it to sample email address for example gmail, yahoo, outlook express the information does not look the same. I have recieved emails from stores and they are nicely laid out with pictures etc. Is there an easy way to make a template for an email thats easy to use thanks Gerard
I am sorry I made a mistake the sales page is in html i am trying to make it so its readable in email clients
You will have to keep in mind that html emails must 1. been sent as html 2. have inline styles .. not references to external stylesheets 3. usually can't handle compicated html take a look at this link for more info http://www.sitepoint.com/article/code-html-email-newsletters/ regards
ok i think my problem might have been using an externall css stylesheet I think I need to make some changes hmmmmmmmmmmm where to start? Thanks GNP
I've never done e-mails but to do inline CSS: <style type="text/css" media="screen"> //Styles goes here </style> Rest of HTML Code
as wd_2k6 said, but note that you have to put this code in the body and not in the head tag (as it gets discarded by most email clients)
