Hi,

I have a system that sends an Email to a user.
This email has a html attachment which due to branding I have to have special images on it.

I do not want to send multiple files with the image and html so.

Is there a way to send a file that contains html and small image encoded directly onto the html source?

Thanks!!

Not sure about what you mean in your question, if you don't want to send the images why not point them to the file on your website/server ?

Cheers

-U do NOT want to send your entire layout to user (like an attchement would work) but rather HTML code(file) that points to your site-hence has the SRC of files and links to a full domain
Code:
<a href=&quot;[URL unfurl="true"]http://domain.com/folder/news.html>NEWS</a>[/URL]

while the file u make for the site will have links relative to the site

Code:
<a href=&quot;.../folder/news.html>NEWS</a>

-send them HTML format
-recevie them in HTML format ~ some email (pop and other old systems) servers can not process HTML based or have it dissabled for security resons. - scripted viruses blah blah...
There u have it!

Hi all,

Thanks. This is not simple. I know how to point a section to a image file into html. This is a little more complicated.

I want to attach an image into the html code....
So the html code will have the html code and the image file also. I have been told this something like MHTML or using mime!!!??????? ME do not know.....

I am tying to send one file that contains two images but these images are t be embedded into the HTM. NOT access a site for these as they may be viewed offline.

IS this possible at all??????? I do ot know.

Thanks
