Hi all
I'm trying to use the MIME encoder to send an email with a table in the
body. I have a field that has both plain text and a few lines that are
displayed as a table in the middle of it. I basically just turn on the
v
and h lines and set tab stops.
mimeEncodeField... puts the text into the email body but does not seem
to
format out the table. Is there a way to get it to recognise the table
or
some other way of getting the table to display correctly in the email?
So the mime library call you are talking about is super simple - it just
dumps the htmlText of the field into the HTML (so is fine as long as its
just simple formatting involved), and then looks for inline images and
attaches them as other parts.
The code is in the mime extension (com.livecode.library.mime) and the
handler in question (mimeEncodeFieldAsMIMEMultipartDocument) is built
out of other public mime library APIs... It would be relatively
straightforward to create your own version and customize the HTML output
to your needs.
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
