Hey willpower, great code but the problem is that only part of $mailContent needs to be formatted in html. I suppose I could rewrite the whole $mailContent variable to be in html, but I really don't want to do that unless I have to. What I tried, was put all the content that needs to be html formatted in a variable called $html , then I just conctated that to the $mailContent variable. All the information is sent when e-mailed, but the content that's not html is not formatted right. Hope this makes sense. The relevant code is below.

[code]
$html=<<<HTML_OUTPUT
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' />
<title>Untitled Document</title>

I can't get this to work. I'm using:

[code]<?php
$bar = <<<HTML_OUTPUT
<img src="http://www.site.com/images/picture.gif">
HTML_OUTPUT;
?>
<a href="javascript:addmsgtxt('Greetings,\n\n<?php $bar ?>')">Greetings</a><br>
[/code]

I'm using javascript to insert the image into the <textarea> field, but its not including the code when it sends. What am I doing wrong? If I just type in the code into the textarea field and send it, it only displays the code in the email and not the picture I'm trying to insert.

I've tried sending html using my custom mailing list for the longest time, and everything I try fails.
