sending html and pictures with cfmail

[obouillaud]

Hi

I'm looking for a way ton send a web page and the pictures (images) associated. I wish the page and the pictures to be the body of the mail. There is nothing else that the html code and the pics.

i tried to used the
<img src=&quot;relative_img.gif&quot;> but it doesn't work.
<img src=&quot;

http://absolute_img.gif&quot;>

works only if the email client support web connection. It doesn't work if the person is behind a firewall and has no internet connection (only mail).

When i use Outlook (manualy), it works. I use New mail.. web page and enter the path of my html file (on my hard disk). It automatically inserts the images and send them with the mail.
All clients i tested received the mail in a very good way.

But how can i automate the process using email adresses stocked in a database. I would like to do it using cfmail.

please help me

I need that really quickly (if possible, before tomorrow)

thanks in advance

Olivier

Sorry for the bad english, but it's not my native language

olivier : ca depend du format des mails il faut que tu precise que tu postes du html pas du mime

for everyone :
you actually post HTML code that means that both the client and the server have to support html format. you can set it on the server but you can't control clients. Maybe you could send it as an attached file

J'espere que IZA a raison et que tu parles bien le francais!
Tu devrais l'envoyer avec CFMAIL en format HTML et attacher les images a ton email en utilisant CFMAILPARAM. Ca devrait marcher avec ca.
Fait des tests avec ca et revient nous a IZA ou moi.

Ciao,
Chris ;-)

English version:
You should use HTML format in your CFMAIL to send correctly your email. To send your images please use the CFMAILPARAM parameter. Give it a try and if you got any other problem get back to us...
Thx...
