Can I use javascript in an HTML email? I'm using VB to generate emails in Outlook 2000. I've included javascript in my HTML email, but when I send it, the receiver can only see the pure HTML portion of the email. the code is like this:
Code:
.......
.HTMLbody = "<html>............" & _
"<script language=Javascript ........ >.... </script>"
..........
it turns out that the javascript portion appears as an attachment of the email. What's actually going on? I used the javascript to call an .asp page. Can I do this in an email? Thank you very much!

Yeah, you can include HTML and Java script in emails but if the reciever reads the email from a web - based account i.e hotmail, yahoo, he'll not be able to see whatever java animation etc tou put into the email. Only if you view the email using Outlook Express, Microsoft Outlook etc. Then you can see the the html, java animation etc

oh why is it so?
Thanks for your reply. My problem is exactly what you said. Is it because those free mail provider don't expect to see javascript in an email? Or they're afraid if some people wrote some harmful javascript and deliver them to the system via email?
