Email html format with image

robprell · #1 (**permalink**) April 24th, 2007, 01:50 PM

Does anyone have a complete script that can create a html email and include images that works properly and can post it here? I can post what I have but it does not properly send the attached image as part of the email. It sends the image as an attachment.

any help would be apreciated....

Have a look at this CPAN module:

Sorry I forgot to mention.

We are doing it on winderz (unfortunately) and don't have sendmail available. I need a solution that doesn't depend on sendmail on the computer running perl.(winderz)

Any other ideas?

Also I forgot to mention I can get perl/windows to email via a gmail account. It can send a html email but the images come through as attachments and not in the displayed html email. So for example this html works:

<html><body>
<center>Hello World</center><br>
Image.gif<img src='Image.gif'><br>
</body></html>

This sent from perl sends the image as an attachment not displayed in the html.

<html><body>
<center>test</center>
</body></html>
echo "<html>";
echo "<body>";
echo "Under_Construction.gif<img src='Under_Construction.gif'><br>";
echo "</body>";
echo "</html>";

Any thoughts/ideas?

Need to download code?
