Woolf Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 In order to send HTML code (that means <a href=... links) in an e-mail, you must let the script know that your message contains html. In theory, this should work:[code]$link = '<a href="nickyrubin.com/members">login</a>'; $to = $buyer_email; $subject = 'Hi '.$firstname.', Nicky Rubin Would like to thank you'; $message = 'Hi '.$firstname.' Thank you for buying from nickyrubin.com Here is you username and password USERNAME = '.$buyer_email.' PASSWORD = '.$password.' Please login here'.$link.''; $headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); $enter = '<div class="error">An email has been sent containing your username and password.</div>';[/code]What is in the $headers variable lets the script know it should be formatted as HTML. Please note, however, that means that you must format the rest of your message in HTML. For example, you cannot just format a new line by using a return, you must use < br > (without the spaces) instead.e.g.[code]$link = '<a href="nickyrubin.com/members">login</a>'; $to = $buyer_email; $subject = 'Hi '.$firstname.', Nicky Rubin Would like to thank you'; $message = 'Hi '.$firstname.'<br> Thank you for buying from nickyrubin.com<br> Here is you username and password<br> USERNAME = '.$buyer_email.'<br> PASSWORD = '.$password.'<br> Please login here'.$link.'';<br> $headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); $enter = '<div class="error">An email has been sent containing your username and password.</div>';[/code] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/17984-simple-question/#findComment-76974 Share on other sites More sharing options...
