Ping Paulo ......Email.HTML -> fLoadText

Hi all,

I'm trying to get a logo into the Email.HTML function. When I click on the *.html file the browser opens and everything looks OK.
When I use the Email.HTML function the logo drops from the email. I respect all the paths, so that cannot be the problem.

Any ideas?

Best regards,

AadG

if I remember correctly, images are NOT supported directly in html content. You either have to :
- use a url to point to an image hosted on a web server (those are the images that your email client always refuses to show by default)
- or transform your image in base64 text, then use a special image as base 64 tag in your html to incoporate it in it (it's a simple html syntax easy to google)

Ok Argus thanks for your reply.

Did you try using the EmailImportHTML function?

Hi Paulo,

I tried your suggestion, but can't get it to work, so I must be doing something wrong.
Do you have by any chance a working piece of code that I can integrate. How do you make your HTML-file with
an image included. The editor I tried was Word, but I don't think thats's the best option.

Best regards,

Aad

Hi Aad,

here is some working code: (WINDEV25)

Definitions:
////////////////////////////////////

pfad is string
res is string
glMailID is int
cnt is int

empf is string
popt is string

MyMessage is Email

MySession is emailSessionSMTP

myatt is emailAttach
MyHTMLText is string
mypics is string

///////////////////////////////////////////

IF ftyp = 1 THEN // html control

MyMessage.HTML = HTML1

END

IF ftyp = 2 THEN // plain TEXT
MyMessage.Message = HTMLToText(HTML1)
END


IF ftyp = 3 THEN // html file
prepareHTML()
EmailImportHTML(MyMessage,MyHTMLText,mypics)

END

PROCEDURE prepareHTML()

MyHTMLText = fLoadText(Inhalt)

mypics = fExtractPath(Inhalt, fDrive+fDirectory)

HTML2 = Inhalt

////////////////////////////////////////////

// Inhalt contains the path and file of the HTML File

// HTML2 is the HTML Control
