 Posted: Mon Aug 20, 2018 5:56 pm Post subject: Content E-mail as HTML |
 |
|
Hi,
I use the following code to send an e-mail:
[php]
| Code: |
$smarty->assign('name', $_POST['name']);
$smarty->assign('email', $_POST['email']);
$smarty->assign('subject', $_POST['subject']);
$smarty->assign('content', $_POST['content']);
mail($globals['email'], $_POST['subject'], $smarty->fetch('form_body.tpl'), 'From: Our website <' .$globals['email']. '>', '-f ' .$globals['email']. '');
|
[template]
| Code: |
Dear webmaster,
{$name} has contacted us through our webste. Here's the message::
Name: {$name}
E-mail address: {$email}
Subject: {$subject}
Content:
{$content}
*******************************
This e-mail message is intended exclusively for the addressee. If the e-mail was sent to you by mistake, please return it to us.
*******************************
|
How do I get {$content} in HTML format? |

| I don't quite understand your question. What you mean "in HTML format" ? |

The content of my e-mail gives the HTML code. Fot instance <b>test</b> in stead of setting test in bold. |

Of course. You're sending your message as plain text. Worse still, you're sending it as unsafe plain text. The mail() function does not do any encoding of the message body.
You have to, either, learn [RFC 2045] and manually properly encode your message, or use one of the mail sending libraries out there, like PHPMailer or SwiftMailer, or what else. |

Smarty is not a problem in this situation.
Example #5 here:
http://docs.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php
details what you need to pass to the mail() function to indicate to the recipient's email program it should display the message as an HTML web page would. |

You're absolutely right. I've done some digging and found the issue was just PHP mail() header settings. |
