You don't need to write <a href=.....> for outlook , if  you put space
before and after URL unless you want to send HTML mail. Outlook thinks it's
a URL if you write correct URL and many other UMA treats URL or Email
address as link.

i.e. www.php.net is not correct URL,  my outlook express thinks it is a URL
though...
http://www.php.net/ is correct URL and you should be able to click it to
open it.

If you want to send HTML mail, take a look at whole HTML formatted mail
including headers in your mail box. You will get how to compose HTML
formatted mail.

Subject: [PHP] what is wrong with this sniplet?


people,
I tried to write out email using sniplet below, the email will write out the
hyper link so that reciever can click on the link to go to the page. What
happen is that the reciever recieve the actual link instead of the hyper
link I made, so I wonder what did I do wrong. I have mad sure that the email
software I used to test can read html format ( I use outlook express).

  $mailTo  =   "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
  $mailSubject = "test";
  $mailBody    = "Dear sir, \n\n";
  $mailBody    = "Below is the link you can click on, \n\n";
  $mailBody   .= "<html><body>Please Click <a
href=\"www.php.net\">Here</a></body></html> to view the request details";
  $mailHeaders = "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\n";
  mail($mailTo, $mailSubject, $mailBody, $mailHeaders);
