background Image on emails

Hi

How to add an image background table on a form? I created an html code but on reply email the image is wiped off

Regards

Hi Darbas,

I wouldn't even try, the way that mail readers treat images varies a lot and there is no way to be sure that it is visible.

What do you see if you view the HTML source of the email? Are there any clues there about what is happening? Is the image link broken or is it just not being displayed?

PS You could embed the image in the email - ChronoForms doesn't support this though I think that you can do it using Custom PHP to send the email.

The idea was to create some sort of diploma.

I tried to create a table on the "thanks Message" but i get stuck with the same problem...ie i cant use a image as background.

Hi Darbas,

You should be able to do it in the Thanks Message OK - what HTML are you using?

I was testing it like

<div style="position: relative; background: url('/images/misc/2015/Convite_virtual.jpg'); width: 600px; height: 1058px;">
<div style="position: absolute; bottom: 0; left: 0.5em; width: 400px; font-weight: bold; color: #fff;">
<p>(text to appear at the bottom left of the image)</p>
</div>
<p style="position: absolute; top: 1em; right: 2em; width: 120px; padding: 4px; background-color: #fff; font-weight: bold; font-size: 11px;">(text to appear at the top right of the image)</p>
</div>

But i cant print the output....

and

<table width="(1397)" height="(1058)" background="(/images/misc/2015/Convite_virtual_.jpg)" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td valign="bottom">
<p><b><font color="#ffffff">
(text to appear over the image goes here)
</font></b></p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Hi David,

Please try the first version using a full URL for the image - a relative url won't work in an email at all. And check that the image exists at that URL ( the _ at the end of the name is a bit odd).
