how to include a .jpg logo in the email...??

rasterblaster 08 Jan, 2008
I have made an email template however I want to include a .jpg 'logo' in the email.

if I use the following code:
<P style="MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt" align=left><SPAN><IMG
alt="" hspace=0 src="http://www.marty.com.au/images/mart_com_au_logo.jpg"
align=baseline border=0></SPAN></P>


Outlook (and a lot of other email programs) show a 'click here to download from the internet' instead of the picture.

How do I include the picture with the email - and also not as an 'attachment'

if you make a signature in outlook, these sort of things are not an attachment, they are 'built in' to the email.
(the code looks like this)
<IMG
alt="" hspace=0 src="cid:453004208@08012008-1D74" align=baseline
border=0>


anyway to do that?

Warmly, Marty

Hi Marty,

As far as I can see from a quick search around this isn't straightforward.

This note might be useful (from PHP Help)

Email with attachments and special types of content (e.g. HTML) can be sent using this function. This is accomplished via MIME-encoding - for more information, see this Zend article (link is broken) or the PEAR Mime Classes.

PS To get external images to show up in Outlook the best route is to encourage regular recipients to add your address to their Outlook address book. Then all is well.

Thanks for that. It's great information..
The fix does seem more effort than its worth though.. Its all a bit over my head at the moment.

I will revisit that in 6 months when I have learnt more.

Thanks heaps for your quick reply!

Marty
