saving as html and emailing

[Peter]

I have a column of text and to the right have a couple of
photographs. When I email it to myself it looks fine in outlook 2007
but on other peoples email programs such as gmail the html isn't
formatted correctly. Is there anyway to group or format differently
so everything stays in the same place.

Thanks,
Pete

Convert it to a .pdf file and send that.

You have no control over how a recipient views e-mail. many will have their
mail readers set to view only plain text, because of the dangers inherent in
html code. The *only* way to ensure that a message is read in the exact
format that it was intended is to use PDF format.

PDF would be the simpliest option and the images are emebeded within the
PDF when created from an active web page.

Possible html solution (Word is not the most effective tool for html
creation)
1) When creating the web page
2) place the saved html page and the images in the same folder/directory
3) disable "Organize supporting files in a folder" in Word.
4) complete html page with realtive links to images
5) create email, attach web page and images from saved same folder
location.

Please note; also as previously advised, you cannot force a users
browser or email software to display in an html format. With the above
steps, you will however at least have the images attached.
