    Right this is more of a programming problem then an Outlook problem. If you use IE and outlook you have the option "send page by email" in the toolbar or under file->send. Trouble is that when you click it and add your message ("check out the second image ect") the default text size on my site is 36 but on most its 12. I know its got something to do with the CSS or HTML. I've searched hi and low but i can't find anything relevent to this.

    All help welcomed!
    Thanks

    Outlook interprits the html on send/edit.:mad: (Adds all that fancy ie nonhtml/html crap)

    I had a workaround when i was doing a company newsletter of using outlook express to send the e-mail by pasting the html into the source tab of outlook express.:)


    Hope that helps some.


    probably not but best of luck

    You owe me a pint if it helps :D

    Not really helpfull. If you open a website in IE and then click File->send->page by email outlook opens with a copy of the page in a new email waiting for you to add the email address and text for the message. Its when you go to type your message that you'll find the problem. On my site the font defaults to 36 but on most other sites i tried its down at 12. I'm pretty sure its got something to do with CSS but I just don't know.

    Anyhow Nutjob thanks for the suggestion.
