Hi guys,

 

This might be so dumb, but is there anyway to create an html email from some php info?

 

<table width="800" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td height="80" align="left" valign="top" background="http://www.website.co.uk/images/top.jpg"><p> </p>    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="left" valign="top" background="http://www.website.co.uk//images/middle.jpg">
<table width="800" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
     <tr>
       <td width="20"> </td>
       <td class="main">
         <p>Dear 
	 <?php
	 if ($groom_firstname == 'X') 
{  
  echo $bride_firstname ;
} 
  else
{
  echo $bride_firstname " and " $groom_firstname "," ; 
}
?></p>
         <p>We are please to announce that your album has been made live now.</p>
         <p>Please click <a href="http://website.co.uk/emailgallery.php?login=<? echo $login ; ?>">HERE</a> to view your album. </p>
         <p>You can also now tell all your family and friends about your new album by clicking HERE. </p></td>
   <td width="20"> </td>
 </tr>
    </table></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="left" valign="top" background="http://www.website.co.uk/images/bottom.jpg"> </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="left" valign="top"><blockquote>
    </blockquote></td>
  </tr>
</table>

I dont know how to make the actual email, is it just

 

<?php
//Make Connection

include "http://www.website.co.uk/scripts/connection.php"; 
if (!$con) 
{ 
 die( 'Could not connect: ' . mysql_error() ); 
  }
mysql_select_db($db, $con); 

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM album WHERE username= $user");
?>

 

how do i get the info from the database though?

 

there will only be one row of info to use...

 

only a few fields

 

<?php
# -=-=-=- MIME BOUNDARY

$mime_boundary = "----Your_Company_Name----".md5(time());

# -=-=-=- MAIL HEADERS

$to = "$email";
$subject = "This text will display in the email's Subject Field";

$headers = "From: Our Company <company@ourcompany.com>\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: Our Company <company@ourcompany.com>\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=\"$mime_boundary\"\n";

# -=-=-=- HTML EMAIL PART

$message .= "--$mime_boundary\n";
$message .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8\n";
$message .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n\n";

$message .= "<html>\n";
$message .= "<body style=\"font-family:Verdana, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size:14px; color:#666666;\">\n"; 
$message .= "<table width='800' border='0' align='center' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0'><tr><td height='80' align='left' valign='top' background='http://www.website.co.uk/images/top.jpg'><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td align='left' valign='top' background='http://www.website.co.uk//images/middle.jpg'>";
$message .= "<table width='800' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'><tr><td width='20'> </td>";
$message .= "<td class='main'><p>Dear ";
$message .= "if ($groom_firstname == 'X') {  ";
$message .= "echo $bride_firstname ; } ";
$message .= "else { ";
$message .= "echo $bride_firstname ' and ' $groom_firstname ',' ; }</p>";
$message .= "<p>We are please to announce that your album has been made live now.</p>";
$message .= "<p>Please click <a href='http://website.co.uk/emailgallery.php?login=$login'>HERE</a> to view your album. </p>";
$message .= "<p>You can also now tell all your family and friends about your new album by clicking HERE. </p></td><td width='20'> </td></tr></table></td></tr>";
$message .= "<tr><td align='left' valign='top' background='http://www.website.co.uk/images/bottom.jpg'> </td></tr></table>";
$message .= "</body>\n";
$message .= "</html>\n";

# -=-=-=- FINAL BOUNDARY

$message .= "--$mime_boundary--\n\n";

# -=-=-=- SEND MAIL

$mail_sent = @mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers );
echo $mail_sent ? "Mail sent" : "Mail failed";
