You would have to link to the stylesheet. However, I recommend not doing so because it will not work for webmail clients, eg. gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc. All of these load your HTML email part within their own page REWRITING PARTS OF IT. As such, using external stylesheets is a non-starter because it will be stripped out for many--if not most--of your recipients. Inline style blocks are also likely to be removed (I can't remember the details for each client because I never do this). The solution is to use inline style attributes within the HTML elements (eg. style="..."). Yes, every paragraph, anchor, header, whatever needs style info. It sucks mightily but that seems to be the only way to keep your styles. What I've been doing is applying the styles to the markup using regexps. This is why I've been trying to talk clients out of HTML newsletters. RSS is a better technology, anyway. And always be sure to send a plaintext part (Cake gets this wrong, IMHO, by offering to send HTML-only emails. Bad, bad, bad. There should be no such thing.) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
