Embed HTML Page in Email

[TLMM]

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

I have an HTML page which is a newsletter. I want to be able to add it to an
email message so I can email it to people. I want it to be in the body of
the email, not sent as an attachment.

There is a .htm page, several images, and a .css page. I need all of these
to be embedded for the page to work correctly. I can put the styles from the
..css file into the html page, but I still need to know how to embed the
images.

I tried creating stationary, but it didn't put the images in the email.

I know it is possible to do this. Can someone give me some pointers as to
how to get an HTML page along with several images into an email message.

I am currently using Outlook 2003.

Thanks!

Thanks.

I tried almost everything in the list, but opening with Word and sending
from there worked the best. I did encounter a few problems though:

I tried opening the page in Word and emailing it. I moved the contents of
the css file into the header of the html file. It works for the most part,
but there are a few things that do not work.

1. The internal links aren't working. I have links so that the user can
click and it brings them further down the page. There are also links that
should bring the user back to the top of the page. Neither of these work.

2. The hover functinality set in the style tags does not work. Other things
set in the <style> tags are working though. The font type, size and color,
for example, look fine.

Any suggestions?

I didn't try Method 4 because I was not quite sure what to do with the code.

The page I suggested explains what you have to do to make internal links
work.

Maybe hover just doesn't work in Outlook HTML messages. I can't recall every
seeing it.
