HTML Mail Not working?

[h3r0]

I have the headers set as:

$headers .= "From: newuser@mysite.com\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
mail($email,"New User Registered",$message,$headers);

However, its not coming out as HTML formatted in the emails. I see all of the html tags.

-h3r0

I think it has something to do with the "from" header... I had the same problem, removed that header and then it worked...

Maybe the content-type has to be set before the From? Or what blue-eye-labs said...

it seems that if your host uses a CGI-mailer (which mine does) then it automatically sets the from header &c... this seems to override all your own headers if you specify that one.
I had the content type set first initially... it still didn't work.
Also you should specify the MIME-type, I think.
