send html email via php

[andersstudio]

Hey,

I am having problems with sending an html email with php. I searched through the previous threads and such here, an found this code to: "Content-Type: text/html" to place as follows:

mail("$email_admin", "$emailsubject", "$mailbody", "From: $from_who", "Content-Type: text/html");

but it still does not let me apply html tags like this: $mailbody.="<b>$string</b>";

What is wrong?

Thank you.

the headers have to all be passed in the 4th parameter, not separated by commas, so

mail("$email_admin", "$emailsubject", "$mailbody", "From: $from_who", "Content-Type: text/html"); 

//should be

mail("$email_admin", "$emailsubject", "$mailbody", "From: $from_who\r\nContent-Type: text/html");
