Hi  ,

i have an app with a HTML Text item which i need to send as part of a mail, im trying to insert some header text to divide between the diffrent tables,  in the designer it looks good while in the mail it is not.

i use a white text row to simulate a blank row, and another one with the text.

formula: 

...</tr>")&"
</tbody>
</table>


<p><span style='color: rgb(255, 255,255); font-family: ""Times New Roman"";vertical-align: top; font-size: 25px; '>empty row</span> </p>
<p><span style='color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: ""Times New Roman"";vertical-align: top; font-size: 25px;'><b>Weekly Status Report</b></span> </p>
<br>
<table align=""left"" border=""1"" cellpadding=""1"" cellspacing=""1"" style=""width:1100px"">

<tbody>

<tr>...

 

this is how it look like in the designer:

    You have to be careful with some of the html you use for emails.  Outlook only supports a subset of html, so, sometimes things will just get ignored.

    You might want to take a look over this list of ignored tags for Outlook and see if you have something that falls into one of those scenarios.

    Hi @RandyHayes 

    thanks for your reply, you are right of course it is more of a HTML question, anyhow i didnt find any missing tag in it, more than this, when looking in the outlook preview the headers are placed correctlly, it is only when i open the mail in a new window where it goes nuts...

    anyway, thanks for your answer.

    This is really more of an HTML question than a PowerApps question.

    You will need to make sure all of your table tags and everything else about your HTML is correct.  From the looks of it, you are missing a closing tag somewhere in your html.

    I would suggest that you start out by creating your table and everything you want in your email and then grabbing the HTML that is generated and using that in your App.  This will ensure that you have all the formatting and html in the right way.

     

    I hope this is helpful for you.
