Displaying inline images

[Richard Bibby]

Hej,

I have an html format email that contains one image. I have two versions of
the email. The html is identical except for the way the image is
referenced.

This html works and the image is displayed correctly.

<div class="adht6t2a2hjuo-1" nowrap="true"
style="z-index:15;top:3388px;left:35px;width:699px;height:283px;"><img
src="cid:image1" border="0" width="699px" height="283px"></div>

However this does not work. Here the image is rendered using the
AlphaImageLoader.

<div class="adht6qe12cg2v4-0" nowrap="true"
style="z-index:25;top:3265px;left:35px;width:699px;height:283px;"><div
style="width:699px;height:283px;display:inline-block;filterrogidXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(enabled=true,sizingMethod=scale,src='cid:us.jpg');"></div>

Any ideas? In the first email I do not see the image as an attachment, but
I do in the second but its not displayed inline.

Got a version for that Outlook?

What doesn't work about the second one? How were the two messages created?

Hej,

The image is not displayed when I use the AlphiImageLoader but is when the
img tag is used.

progidXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(enabled=true,sizingMethod=scale,src='cid:us.jpg');"...

Both sets of html was created by exporting a crystal reports report to hml.

The image is not displayed when I use the AlphiImageLoader but is
when the img tag is used.

And if you put that same code into Internet Explorer, it works?

 

[Richard Bibby]

Yes the html and image displays in Explorer... however I have modified it to
use a "cid" for use as an email.

Well, Outlook 2003 is supposed to be using IE to perform the rendering.
While I never create HTML mail messages, I can imagine, however, that it may
not be the full IE rendering engine in play and so the ability to present
the HTML as you might expect from a web browser may not exist in Outlook.
This is especially true once you begin to use Outlook 2007 because that
version uses Word for the rendering engine and Word does not honor the
current full HTML specs.

Perhaps someone else may have an idea. Sorry I couldn't help.
