Re: LC, applescript and mail.app
Hi Yves,
According to the Mail applescript's dictionary, the content property only
accepts RTF content.
2 ways for doing what you want:
1. RTF
put the rtfText of fld test to tVar
tell application Mail
set newMessage to (make new outgoing message at end of outgoing
messages with properties {subject:xx, content:tVar})
end tell
2. Or with applescript, using the HTML content property of the outgoing
message
set the htmlText of fld test to tVar
tell application Mail
set newMessage to (make new outgoing message at end of outgoing
messages with properties {subject:xx, html content:tVar})
end tell
Best Regards,

Hi list,

I have a text formatted with html tags in a variable tVar

set newMessage to (make new outgoing message at end of outgoing

the text appears in the mail but with the tags

How can I resolve this ?
Thanks.

Re: LC, applescript and mail.app
Hi Yves,
I had this problem too. I noticed that Mail automatically converts any
diacritics to HTML to make sure that they are read correctly on PC's.
Just use standard MacRoman and all will be fine.
However, I would be very interested in knowing whether Zryip's solution
works for you.

Re: LC, applescript and mail.app
Hi,
thanks for the good idea; the text appears without html flags
but … as plain text, not formatted, without returns, bold text, …
no any other idea ?

Re: LC, applescript and mail.app
Hi
I did another test
set the clipboardData[HTML] to tVar
and then, I paste myself the text in a mail.app message
and I get a good formatted text.
Is it possible to do the same via applescript (to avoid having to do it
manually)

Re: LC, applescript and mail.app
Hi Yves,
This is the short version of the AppleScript I use:
set mailText to
set thisSubject to Test E-Mail
set thisEmail to t...@test.xyz
using terms from application Mail
tell application Mail
set theAccount to Name of Your Mail Account
set theNewMessage to make new outgoing message with properties
{account:theAccount, subject:thisSubject, content:mailText, visible:false}
tell theNewMessage
make new to recipient at end with properties
{address:thisEmail}
set sender to Your Name y...@domain.xyzs
end tell
send theNewMessage
end tell
end using terms from
and this is a LiveCode script, assuming that the AppleScript is in a field
(normally I'd use a property) and the body text is also in a field:
on mouseUp
put fld AppleScript into myAppleScript
put fld Body Text into myBodyText
replace quote with backslash quote in myBodyText
replace cr with backslash n in myBodyText
replace with myBodyText in myAppleScript
do myAppleScript as AppleScript
put the result into rslt
if rslt is not empty then
beep
answer error rslt
end if
end mouseUp
Careful: if you run this script, it *will* send an e-mail.
