Add HTML Formatting in PHPmailer

Add HTML formatting in phpmailer

By default, the PHP `mail()` function is `text/plain`.

In your mail() headers, change the content-type to text/html and try.

Example:

<?php 
    $body = "<html>\n"; 
    $body .= "<body style=\"font-family:Verdana, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size:12px; color:#666666;\">\n"; 
    $body = $message; 
    $body .= "</body>\n"; 
    $body .= "</html>\n"; 

    $headers  = "From: My site<noreply@example.com>\r\n"; 
    $headers .= "Reply-To: info@example.com\r\n"; 
    $headers .= "Return-Path: info@example.com\r\n"; 
    $headers .= "X-Mailer: Drupal\n"; 
    $headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\n"; 
    $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; 

    return mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $headers); 
?>

PHP Mailer:

You need to set IsHTML(true):

$mail->IsHTML(true);

PHPmailer sending HTML CODE

Calling the isHTML() method after the instance Body property (I mean $mail->Body) has been set solved the problem for me:

$mail->Subject = $Subject;
$mail->Body    = $Body;
$mail->IsHTML(true);       // <=== call IsHTML() after $mail->Body has been set.

Sending information from an HTML page with PHP Mailer

Bonjour Seazy. This won't work:

$mail->MsgHTML($_POST['name']); 
$mail->MsgHTML($_POST['prenom']); 
$mail->MsgHTML($_POST['email']); 
$mail->MsgHTML($_POST['message']);

You will end up with a message that contains only what's in the message field, and msgHTML, won't be much help here. Keeping it simple, you need to do something like this (using a plain-text message):

$mail->Body = <<<EOT
{$_POST['name']} 
{$_POST['prenom']}
{$_POST['email'])}
{$_POST['message']} 
EOT;

It looks like you've based your code on a very old example, so take a look at the contact form example provided with PHPMailer.

If you instead want to include these values in a template, you need to look at loading those template files using PHP's output buffering and include statement, along the lines of:

ob_start();
include 'template.php';
$html = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
$mail->msgHTML($html);

PHPMailer - HTML Formatting Issue

If you want to declare a string variable using single quotes, you just have to concatenate variables this way:

$htmlBody = '<html>
    <head><title>Online Order Form</title></head><body>
    <p><b>Account Name:</b> '.$AccountName.'<br>
    <b>Delivery To:</b> '.$DeliveryTo.'<br>
    <b>Order No:</b> '.$OrderNo.'<br>
    <b>Del Date:</b> '.$DelDate.'<br>
    <b>Builder Name:</b> '.$BuilderName.'<br>
    <b>Delivery Instructions:</b> '.$DeliveryInstructions.'<br>
    <b>Contact Phone:</b> '.$ContactPhone.'<br>
    ...
    ';

Otherwise you must declare your string variable using a double quotes if you want variables replaced by their values:

$htmlBody = "<html>
    <head><title>Online Order Form</title></head><body>
    <p><b>Account Name:</b> $AccountName<br>
    <b>Delivery To:</b> $DeliveryTo<br>
    <b>Order No:</b> $OrderNo<br>
    <b>Del Date:</b> $DelDate<br>
    <b>Builder Name:</b> $BuilderName<br>
    <b>Delivery Instructions:</b> $DeliveryInstructions<br>
    <b>Contact Phone:</b> $ContactPhone<br>
    ...
    ";

phpmailer body, want to use html and php

Setting Debugoutput has nothing to do with sending HTML - it's the error output format. You need to call isHTML() or set your content using msgHTML(). Also there is no such word as 'verificate' it's just 'verify'.

Adding style to a php html email

You need to use inline style to get it works on your email

    $to = $newsletter_email;
    $subject = 'Thank you for subscribing';
    $message = '
        <html>
        <head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
            <title></title>
        </head>
        <body>
            <div id="email-wrap" style='background: #151515;color: #FFF;'>
            <p>Hi,</p><br>
            <p>Thank you.</p><br>
            <p>Thank you,</p>
            <p>Administration</p>
            </div>
        </body>
        </html>
            ';

            $from = "newsletter@example.com";
            //$Bcc = "example@example.com";

            // To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
            $headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
            $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

            // Additional headers
            $headers .= 'To: ' .$to. "\r\n";
            $headers .= 'From: ' .$from. "\r\n";
        //  $headers .= 'Bcc: '.$Bcc. "\r\n";

            // Send the email
            mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);

For the second part of your question you can use something like this

$to = 'test@server.com';
$email_from = "best.buy@yahoo.com";

$full_name = 'Best Buy';
$from_mail = $full_name.'<'.$email_from.'>';
$from = $from_mail;
$headers = "" .
           "Reply-To:" . $from . "\r\n" .
           "X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion();
$headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; 
$headers .= 'From: ' . $from_email . "\r\n";       
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);

Send HTML in email via PHP

It is pretty simple. Leave the images on the server and send the PHP + CSS to them...

$to = 'bob@example.com';

$subject = 'Website Change Request';

$headers  = "From: " . strip_tags($_POST['req-email']) . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . strip_tags($_POST['req-email']) . "\r\n";
$headers .= "CC: susan@example.com\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8\r\n";

$message = '<p><strong>This is strong text</strong> while this is not.</p>';

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

It is this line that tells the mailer and the recipient that the email contains (hopefully) well-formed HTML that it will need to interpret:

$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8\r\n";
