I know this is one of the more annoying things in the world. A client of mine is looking to insert an html page into an email. This might or might not include a form ((it probably won't.. the easiest way is sometimes the best)). But how do you get the actual html to embed into the email? I'm sure I'm missing out on something simple. HELP!

The e-mail header has to be modified in order to tell the mail client that it should read HTML, not plaintext or RTF formatted text.

In for example Outlook Express (I didn't find the function in Outlook), you create a mail. View>Source edit.

I think it is the header line 'content-type=text/html', not sure that's all though.

Hope this helps.
