I am using PHP mailer to send an online form directly to email. I want to edit the form like this:
$message = '<p>The following request was sent from: '</p>;
$message .= '<p>Name: '.$name.'</p><br />';
$message .= '<p>Phone: '.$phone.'</p><br />';
$message .= '<p>Email: '.$email.'</p><br />';
However, in the email I receive back, I get the <p>, <br />, etc. Not the formatting I want, but the actual HTML. It has always worked for me, then I realized I was using the stock PHP mail function. not sure if PHP mailer has different parameters OR if I just missing small here?
Where would I set the headers for text/html?
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail -> IsSMTP();
$mail -> Host = "---";
$mail -> Port = 25;
$mail -> SMTPAuth = false;
$mail -> Username = EMAIL_USER;
$mail -> Password = EMAIL_PASS;
$mail -> FromName = $from_name;
$mail -> From = $from;
$mail -> Subject = $subject;
$mail -> Body = $message;
$mail -> AddAddress("---");
$result = $mail -> Send();
By default, the PHP mail() function is text/plain.
In your mail() headers, change the content-type to text/html and try.
Example:
<?php
$body = "<html>\n";
$body .= "<body style=\"font-family:Verdana, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size:12px; color:#666666;\">\n";
$body = $message;
$body .= "</body>\n";
$body .= "</html>\n";
$headers = "From: My site<noreply@example.com>\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: info@example.com\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-Path: info@example.com\r\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: Drupal\n";
$headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
return mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>
PHP Mailer:
You need to set IsHTML(true):
$mail->IsHTML(true);
In PHP mailer, you need to set below
$mail->IsHTML(true);
Note: $mail means your PHPMailer object.
