I'm looking for some input on sending HTML vs text type emails. Example: a site owner wants a tool to send emails to his website subscribers. Site owner wants to send rich text style email with bold, italics, colors, possibly an image.
Do you typically use cfmailpart to send an HTML and text version? If so how do you prompt the user for the content? I could strip the HTML tags from the submitted content, and use that for the text version. But whatever WYSIWYG editor I use, I'm sure the HTML will be muddled to heck and the resulting html-to-text conversion will not leave the proper paragraph breaks. Perhaps prompt the site owner for two versions of the email, one using a rich text editor and one using a regular textarea? I was wondering about the feasibility of sending only the HTML version. I imagine most clients can gracefully degrade an HTML message and display it? -Ryan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:256188 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
