Description:
I want to be able to send emails in HTML format. I have been trying and have been getting results that are not consistent. I can get it to work on some web based email systems but not others. All these systems can see HTML emails from others but not from me. So that tells me that something in the HTML code itself needs to be fixed. I am trying to use style sheets within the html to customize the display. I don't know if that is the problem. The file attached is what I want as a demo to be sent to an email address I specify (from yahoo). If the sytle sheet can't be used, then I want an alternative that uses all of the styles that I have (about 5).

Deliverables:
Show me how to do it. When I can replicate your results, then the project is finished.

Special Conditions / Other:
Hopefully, soon.

Dear Sir,

Having gone through your requirement, I would like to bring the following to your notice,

1) You have used style sheets in your HTML, which is supported only by IE, thats why it was working inconsistently.

2) Check the following URL <a href='http://www.ipwrs.com/demo/email_jan25/composemail.htm'>http://www.ipwrs.com/demo/email_jan25/composemail.htm</a>

Give your Email id
