Hi,
I'm having a problem with html in ms outlook!
I have got a basic form which sends the users email address and telephone numbers when it is filled in. Problem is when I stick it into Outlook everything goes haywire!!!

The send button doesn't work for one example. When I create it in outlook express and sent to outlook, if you forward it in outlook the text boxes disappear?!?!?

Any ideas?

Have you tried perhaps embedding the page in a outlook form. It is quite easy and works like a charm.
 
I would love to see an example of this form. Please pass an example along if at all possible. Thanks.
 
You need to set up a new form in Outlook.
Tools:Forms:Design a Form.
You will have to choose a standard form type like Message under Standard Forms Library which can then be saved as something else.

Your form will have to contain the code in VBScript to load the exact page - example:
Function Item_Open()
Set MyPage = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("Test")
MyPage.Webtest.Navigate("End Function

There is quite some control over the toolbars etc. but the documentation is a bit scarse.
Hope this helps
