formmail format question

hey Guys,

I set up a form mail for my companies website so the salespeople can send us "delivery notice emails"

however, I'd really like to change the font size that the email comes in to a larger size

does anyone know if its possible? or how to do it?

Make a copy of FormMail.pl and rename it something like "FormMail_v0.pl" so you keep a copy of it in its orignal form.

Open FormMail.pl in any text editor, like Notepad.

Find line 400:

print MAIL "Below is the result of your feedback form. It was submitted by\n";

Just above it, insert:

print MAIL "[html][font face='arial' size=3]\n";


Where I've had to use "[" and "]" in place of the "<" and ">" html tag delimiters because the mesage board keeps interpreting the tags instead of displaying them.

Re-save FormMail.pl - be sure to preserve the ".pl" extension.

Upload it to replace the one already on your server.

That should work in most modern email clients capable of displaying html email.

You can play with the font face and size as you like.
