HTML cfmail question

2002-05-01 Thread Jim McAtee

When using cfmail type=html, is it best to include a full set of html tags
(html/html, head/head, body/body), as you'd use within a web
page, or is it better to omit them?  I'm thinking of what works best with
html-capable email clients, as I only have Outlook and OE to test with.

You need (should) use well formed html for HTML email clients to render the
HTML correctly.  As with different browser's, different email clients may or
may not compensate for mal-formed HTML.

In my experience, you want to use the best and safest html you can, and include the 
html tags.  Avoid complicated tables and reliance on CSS.  Certainly no JavaScript.

Groupwise can really mangle messages.  Also, use target=_blank if you can in all of 
your links.

Also remember to use absolute links as opposed to relative.

Other than setting the "type=html" param in CFMAIL, you should be set.

Nope.  You just have to make sure the html attribute is set:

e.g.

CFMAIL type="html"

  No..
   If memory serves me, there is actually a CFMAIL setting to specify 
text vs HTML.
