It's a pretty simple thing, though sending email attachments in PHP is a bit circuitious. Let me know more details, maybe I can help you.

It's more as a web page in the body
I guess I could use a while loop to loop thought the names in the database and email them on every loop. that part seems simple but to send a webpage as a body is what i'm have the problem with

Hi Richie,

I think I've solved the problem. In the mail function put an extra header 'content-type:text/html'. It'll work. I'm pasting below a sample code which I tried and it works.

<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 //EN">

<head>
<title>Title here!</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$to = "nilesh@sapna.com";
$subject = "test";
$message = "<main><title></title></main>\n";
$message .= "<body><strong>Hi There</strong></body>";
$type = "Content-type:text/html";
if(mail($to, $subject, $message)) {
echo("Mail successful");
}
?>

</body>
