ColumFerry Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 After changing it to html, is the link still not working? Also, could it be the email provider you are using is blocking external links?

scootstah Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 What mail client are you viewing it with? Most of the time HTML will be disabled by default, and you have to explicitly allow HTML in the email.

CroNiX Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Using plain text email, I just put the raw link (no anchor tag) on it's own line starting with http://. MOST email clients will automatically change anything that starts with http:// into a clickable link. Try just using: http://site2.desmond-otoole.co.uk/CustomerRemove.php Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/297200-sending-a-html-link-in-a-an-email-mail/#findComment-1515721 Share on other sites More sharing options...
otuatail Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 Hi thanks for this. It works if I make it into a complete html text <html><body><a></a></body></html> Just <a></a> doesn't work. Thanks.
