buyog Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 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.

buyog Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 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.

revraz Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 You are already in PHP, so no need to do a <?php echo "test";?> A new line in HTML is <br /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
