Re: [PHP] How do you send stylized email?
I want to send a styled email via heredoc, can that be done?
$message = EOT
Title: This is a title of the Event.
Time: This the time of the Event.
Please show up on time.
EOT
mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]' , 'An Event' , $message);
If so, how do you style it?
If not, how do you send stylized email?
The easiest way is this:
$message = EOT
span style=color: red
Title: This is a title of the Event.
Time: This the time of the Event.
/span
Please show up on time.
EOT
mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]' , 'An Event' , $message, 'Content-Type:
text/html');
If you want to send multipart text/HTML emails, have a look at my
website for the HTMLMimeMail class which greatly simplifies this.

that's just string generation ... 'style' equates to harassing people
with HTML emails ... which will require a message built using the multipart mime
specification ... for which you'll want to grab a ready built lib/class
in order to save your self the hassle.
recommended: phpmailer (google it)
which you can then pull apart to see exactly how it works (it's work
comprises of building the $message into a format that mail readers will
understand as multi-part mime.)

With the normal elements - for text emails, whitespace, line breaks and
line spacing. For HTML emails, you style it as you would any webpage
with HTML and CSS.

Without beating the subject to death, since you've already gotten
two good answers, I'll add in that your HEREDOC (aside from being
prone to a parse error due to the missing semicolon after the closing
EOT) will end immediately after `please show up on time.`
Even though you started EOT on it's own line as is required, the
last carriage return/newline will not be included in $message. If you
want an ending newline (which I consider a Good Idea[tm]), then change
the above to:
$message =EOT

That's for backwards people stuck in ancient pointless traditions :) And moreso in today's culture... it's just a commercial suckfest when your money could better go to student loans and raising a family.

I've been happily living in sin with my common-law wife for 9 years. Besides, isn't marriage primarily a religious thing? Not necessarily. My wife and I have no religion so had a civil ceremony - held in the Assembly Rooms, Bath which was an 18th Century gambling venue ;) In the old testament marriage was often implied by the simple act of laying with a woman... or two... or three... Polygamy, how did that fall out of religious favour? :) Not in the UK. In UK law there is no such thing as a common-law wife/husband.

Re: [PHP] How do you send stylized email?
Hello,
on 02/26/2008 11:53 AM tedd said the following:
$message = EOT
Title: This is a title of the Event.
Time: This the time of the Event.
Please show up on time.
EOT
mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]' , 'An Event' , $message);
If so, how do you style it?
If not, how do you send stylized email?
The easiest way is this:
$message = EOT
span style=color: red
Title: This is a title of the Event.
Time: This the time of the Event.
/span
Please show up on time.
EOT
mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]' , 'An Event' , $message, 'Content-Type:
text/html');
Duh!
I should have thought of that.
Be careful. Do not send HTML only messages or else some mail systems
(notably Hotmail for instance) will discard your messages as if they
were spam.
The right solution to send HTML messages is to use multipart/alternative
messages so you can specify an alternative text to show in mail clients
that do not support HTML messages.
It is a bit more complex solution, but if you want all people to get
your message, it is necessary. To simplify the problem you may want to
use a ready to use PHP component that can compose multipart/alternative
messages. I use this popular MIME message composing class. Try the
test_simple_html_mail_message example script for instance.

Hehe, I was holding my breath for Manuel to come on to this thread!
if($subject === 'something to do with mail')
{
$this-punt('mimemessage', 'phpclasses.org');
}
else {
sleep(86400);
}
