Send Emails HTML by php

[rock_xl1]

Hi ppl! I am tryng to make a program that send emails with html. I used wysiwyg to make the message more cool. I save the message code (html) in a variable in php($msg). This variable i send by mail fuction (mail($to,$sub,$msg) ...

The e-mail recive the html code visible (<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>test</strong></p>) ... and not like a .html webpage (test)... how i do that?

you need to set the headers consider the following code

 

$to = 'bob@barnyard.com';
$subject = 'Wakeup bob!';
$message = '<b>yo</b>, whassup?';
$headers = "From: server@barnyard.com\r\n" .
        'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion() . "\r\n" .
        "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n" .
        "Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8\r\n" .
        "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\r\n\r\n";

// Send
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)

 

the code was taken from http://php.net/mail
