Sending email problem! Plz help!

[Anon]

Hi!

I am having this really annoying problem with sending email, maybe you can help!

Sending the email is not the problem, but getting a link to display in the email is!

The link I want to use is currently being stored in a variable $htmllink but no matter what I do I can not get the link to display like a normal link. The address I am using is quite long containing various variables. All I want is for a standard "click here" link to be shown in the email without having the entire address as the link.

A snippet of the current code is:-

mail ("$RecipientEmail", "Subject etc", Please click\n\n$htmllink to view the card);

This works, but displays the long http address as the link. I have tried to add <A HREF="$htmlink">Click Here</A> with double and single quotes, without quotes with both, quotes at the start and everything but I still cant get it to work! Can you help me??

Thanks!

It doesn't work because you are sending
your mail as plain text;

you should send your email as HTML ;

there's many way of doing it;

you can code your own function or use one
you will found on the net;

the best solution depends of time you had to do it/experience you've got/ extra other needs
