Refer a friend an HTML email - geek/talk: Signature-free discourse for serious web publishers

newmama · 07-19-2006, 01:50 PM

Hi, does anyone know how to refer a friend from a website. The friend needs to directly receive an html email not an email with a link they click on.
I have searched and searched for code (pref PHP) but the only ones I found go through other websites. I am concerned over spam arising from this method (any comments?)
Thanks

Welcome to geektalk!

I dont quite understand what your looking for, a HTML email which includes the entire content of the website?
I've never heard of anything like that..

Hi Jay

Ah, no. It needs to display a webpage within the email page. As if you are receiving an HTML email, only it has come from a refer a friend link on a website.
Let me know if this makes sense. Thanks.

Never heard of that being done, but I'm sure its possible somehow.
Sorry , but I can't help you with this

If I understand correctly, most email supports html encoding in the email. Its simply a MIME type header in the email. Do a search for 'PHP html email' and you should find plenty of examples.
