Hi,

I am doing something like the email system. Right now, I need to send an html email with a hyperlink.

All goes well, except that the hyperlink address in the emails (during my trial runs) show this:

http://mail.yahoo.com/config/login?/ \"http://www.example.com\"

Upon clicking this link, the portion in red will always prompt for the yahoo! login in id and password, instead of directing the reader to the link http://www.example.com

May I know how can I get rid of the unnecessary red portion? :confused:

My code is:

$message="<a href=\"http://www.example.com/example.html\"><i>Example Website</i></a>";

Any advise is most appreciated.

Thanks for reading.

Regards,
Jellybean :D

It appears that your Yahoo mail is to blame - I never use it myself - but clearly it's nothing to do with your actual code. Do you get the same results with a real email account and client?

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

I have not tried this with the real email. Basically, running trials with the Yahoo! mail accounts.

However, I did come aross html emails in Yahoo! mail that are able to direct the readers to the intended websites.

As such, I believe that it could be done.

I really need help on this. Thanks and good day!

Hi all,

I really need help on this.

Very confused why the hyperlinks channel the users to the Yahoo! Login page (in my case).

But I definitely see people who are able to send html emails with hypelinks that successfully channel the users to their intended websites.

Any advise is most appreciated.

Thank you and good day!
