Hi everyone i was wondering if someone could please help me. I have a newsletter system that i use but at the moment its just text to send messages. What i want to do is enter a message into the message box and then it get sent to the user but alow have a design when the user views the email. But what i dont want is the box to be filled with html i want the box to just contain the text. I have tried sending a test newsletter using some html tags like ie <b>This is bold</b> but it actually shows the tags and doesnt put it in bold i wonder if this could be a problem even though i dont want any html in the text box i want the html in a separate area. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Below is php code. quickmessage.php is the part where the box is and class.SimpleMail.php is the backend part of quickmessage.php
quickmessage.php code:
<?php
require('config.php');
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Quick Message</title>
<link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="admin_transact.php">
<p align="center">Enter the message below to send to the Newsletter user.</p>
<p align="center">Choose Mailing List:<br />
<select name="ml_id">
<option value="all">All</option>
<?php
$conn = mysql_connect(SQL_HOST, SQL_USER, SQL_PASS)
or die('Could not connect to MySQL database. ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db(SQL_DB, $conn);
$sql = "SELECT * FROM ml_lists ORDER BY listname";
$result = mysql_query($sql)
or die('Invalid query: ' . mysql_error());
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo " <option value=\"" . $row['ml_id'] . "\">" . $row['listname'] .
"</option>\n";
