Axton: I was able to get the email to go out with header (with images) and
content as plain text (variable from the form). I want to put this plain
text in the body of the message in a table with gray background color. I
have created a template with a single table that has a gray background
color. When I include this template for the content, just the html content
(table with gray color and no text) shows up in the body of the message. So
the email has the right header and a table with gray background color and no
text in it shows up in my email box. Any thoughts?


Thanks
Ray

Subject: Re: Email Engine: outgoing emails in html

Some fundamentals:
- html supports rendering images in an html doc using the <img> tag

Create an html file on your desktop, something simple like this:

<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td><div>Some junk text</div></td>
<tr>
<tr>
<td><img src="http://www.google.com/intl/en_ALL/images/logo.gif";></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body></html>

Open the email templates form, create a record with the html file as
the attachment, the type as html, and give it a name.

Create a filter that sends a notification, specify this template (by
name) as either the header, content, or footer template.
