PHP Mail

I tried to use PHP mail function with an HTML email signature.

Without the signature the from address, subject, message and headers

works fine but problems came in when I try to put the HTML formed

signature. I read one of the mail function to put this on the headers.

 

$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

 

Using this, the HTML signature works but the body of the message will have problems as "\n" or new lines does not seem to work. If I try to put this on the header.

 

$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

 

the HTML signature will display the HTML code and not the HTML output and the body of the message will display correctly.

 

Any ideas how to get both plain text and html on mail function.

Not sure what new HTML line but I also tried a "test" file if I can get

the message something like this

 

<?
$to = 'recipient@test.com';
$subject = 'test mail';
$message = '
<html>
<body>

<?php echo "test"; ?>

</body>
</html>
';

$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Sender <sender@test.com>' . "\r\n";
            
mail ($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
echo 'Sent';
?>

I can receive the email but did not get the expected message which is "test" (without quotes). Just started to learn PHP.
