cannot send out html format email

[keak]

Hi there I have the following code:

   // send email to notify non-existing link
    $headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
    $headers .= "From: mail title <blah@domain.com>";
    $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
    $subject= "email subject";
    $message="blah"

    mail("toemail@domain.com", $subject, $message, $headers);

and the email I am getting is in text format;

Am I missing something here? My mail agent is POSTFIX.


Thanks!

your message does not include any html!

what happens if you change $message

$message = "<div style=\"color:red\">Hello</div>";

oh no, i was saying that even if I put in html tags it shows as plain mail in my gmail and outlook clients.

I have triple checked my headers variable and am not sure where this is happening ...

could be that some mail clients are simply stripping the html.

try sending the mail with phpmailer (from sourceforge), using the isHTML() option. If that fails then it's the mail client causing the problem.
