Even images if I include them in as an attachment. If it is an image src on the web, naturally it displays a X. But I cannot paste it into TB. It does not understand much more than Colored fonts, etc.. No tables, or anything fancy. At least that is as far as I can tell. No, you cannot paste it into TB. What you can do is create an HTML file with an HTML editor and then *attach* it to a message you send with TB. This way, the recipients can click on the attachment and enjoy HTML in all it's glory. -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste.

I did it as an attachment, the text came up first, attachement at the bottom of the screen in a tab, and on the left of the message view as message.html. That should have worked, IMHO. If you attach an HTML file, and the recipient clicks on it, it should be displayed correctly (if the graphics and stuff are sent with it). I receive newsletters in HTML and have no problems displaying them; but the senders are probably not using TB. I let him use Lookout to send the postcard. I just don't like to open the darn program on my computer. I understand this perfectly.

The Bat isn't very well equipped to deal with HTML the way you want. I personally would create the page in notepad and then zip the whole thing up including graphics and send it as an attachment. Pasting it into TB as plain text would make it display as plain text. TB will allow you to add inline graphics but I'm not sure about tables. -- All the best, Tony. ©2ØØ3 - AWB Current version is 2.01.3 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
