I use Microsoft Outlook and most of my incoming email is text. Once in a while i get email formatted in HTML.

I tried copying pasting HTML in to my outgoing email but I dont get formated email. How do you create HTML formatted e-mail?

:rolleyes:

I'm new to HTML but I have sent HTML emails before.
What I had to do was create an HTML webpage of what I wanted and saved it to my Desktop. I then had to open it and click File >>> Send >>> Page by E-mail

For the images on my webpage I had to get web space (there were lots of free ones) to store my images.
On the actual web page the images source was like http://website.com/image1.jpg using the full http:// type address and not just the ../image.jpg style.

If you have your own server to store images, great. If not give a test first. Some free web space companies don't allow image links due to bandwidth issues.

If you want webforms to send email in html format your best bet would be to figure out where you can get some smtp server access and use a server side language to send the email in html format to the smtp server.
