Sorry Mark, What I meant is say a page outputs an HTML table eg:
<table width="100" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td>a</td> <td>b</td> <td>c</td> <td>d</td> <td>e</td> </tr> <tr> <td>f</td> <td>g</td> <td>h</td> <td>i</td> <td>j</td> </tr> <tr> <td>k</td> <td>l</td> <td>m</td> <td>n</td> <td>o</td> </tr> <tr> <td>p</td> <td>q</td> <td>r</td> <td>s</td> <td>t</td> </tr> <tr> <td>u</td> <td>v</td> <td>w</td> <td>x</td> <td>y</td> </tr> </table> But I want to get that code into the $message variable. I have written many mail scripts before it's just getting the data into the variable. Should I be using something like CURL? On 02/06/06, Mark Cain <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
For my server configuration (Unix), mailing works like this for me.
