Hello,
I work for a small company as the marketing assistant and would like to make HTML newsletters to send out monthly to our client database.
I know a little about web design from tutorials.
I have made a quick test which I have been sending to myself (by copying the code to the text field - in HTML mode), but does not work, it displays just the code.
Here is what it should look like: Image
Here is the code:
Made in Adobe Golive. Images obviously need to be linked to an actual source on the internet.
I know emails only accept the <body> section of the code, but do I need anything from the rest of the code inside the body?
Also, I have been told to use inline CSS, not sure what this is exactly as I'm not really that familiar with HTML. Could someone please guide me in the right direction in relation to this code?
How can I make this display right in an email?
Would really appreciate someone's help. Thanks!
