PHP mail() - How to put an html link in an email? [duplicate]

Answer 1

Try to add an header, so that the mail client doesn't believe it is plain text:

$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8' . "\r\n";

See PHP mail function manual:

Example #4 Sending HTML email:

// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: Mary , Kelly ' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Birthday Reminder ' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Cc: birthdayarchive@example.com' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Bcc: birthdaycheck@example.com' . "\r\n";

// Mail it
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>
