I have some design requirements for an email template where I have two "challenges":
two columns need to flip to one column
some visible border lines need to be switched from vertical to horizontal
The following shows how it should look (2 columns on the left for desktop, 1 column on the right for mobile):
The whole email is based on responsive tables and the two-column part is implemented as follows right now:
<table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0"
style="background-color:#F6F6F6; font-size: 14px; color:#58595b; width:100%; border-collapse:collapse;">
<tr><td align="center" valign="top" height="10" colspan=2 style="line-height: 10px; font-size: 10px;"> </td></tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" style="border-right: 1.5px solid; border-color: #d0d0d0; padding-right:40px; text-align:right; width:42%; vertical-align:top;">
Start point
</td>
<td valign="top" style="padding-left:40px; vertical-align:top;">
<strong>Fri, January 12, 2023 12:00</strong>
<br />
Harbour, Seatown
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td align="center" valign="top" height="10" colspan=2 style="line-height: 10px; font-size: 10px;"> </td></tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" style="border-right: 1.5px solid; border-color: #d0d0d0; padding-right:40px; text-align:right; width:42%; vertical-align:top;">
End point
</td>
<td valign="top" style="padding-left:40px; vertical-align:top;">
<strong>So, January 18, 2023 10:00</strong>
<br />
Central Station, Capital
</td>
</tr>
<tr><td align="center" valign="top" height="10" colspan=2 style="line-height: 10px; font-size: 10px;"> </td></tr>
</table>
I tried the approach with having a left and a right table (explained here) but the problem is that I do not use fixed widths.
How could I achieve the required design with a responsive mail template?
You will need to use the technique as outlined in the link, but if you want to use percentages instead of fixed widths, then use width="50%".
This is because the technique works on the basic fundamentals of HTML, that if a block doesn't fit in the space available, it will automatically shift underneath.
So to enable the stacking without a fixed pixel width, you will need to add a #media query to force the stacking (otherwise it would not stack).
e.g.
#media (max-width: 620px)
.table-left,.table-right {
width: 100% !important;
}
(The article you link to is a bit outdated: don't use [class=...], just write it out normally. Gmail may strip the entire <style> section if it doesn't like something in it, and this is one of those things it doesn't like.)
I prefer an override (max-width, and !important) because you want everything possible inline, and only to use embedded styles where strictly necessary.
But that's also why it's best to use a fixed pixel width, because some email clients do not respect your embedded styles (styles in the <head>). GANGA emails (one form of Gmail account) fall into this category. Those email clients would not stack even though they may need to, if you fully rely on the #media query for the stacking.
To override the border, put a style on the <td>, and reference it in the #media query, e.g.
#media (max-width: 620px)
.border {
border-right:none!important;
}
.border-top {
border-bottom:1.5px solid #d0d0d0 !important;
}
As one doesn't have the same border structure (they don't both need border-bottom), one of the <td>s will need a different class. Here, I'm expecting the first one, i.e. <td class="border border-top">.
As soon as I started coding responsive emails, I noticed that contiguous images (all with the same original height) in a HTML table row didn't always remain the same height when being responsively scaled. That's a big problem for me because the email layouts that I am working on are image heavy and have to be tightly aligned. Uneven height images break the layout. I eventually came up with the solution presented here: http://am-samples.gear.host/iPhone5S-iO7-issue.html
Navigate to that URL and resize the browser to see the responsive scaling in action.
Here are the main snippets in case you can't navigate to the URL above:
Table that has the contiguous images
<table class="100p" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" align="center" bgcolor="#7fff00" style="background-color: #7fff00;">
<tr>
<td class="100p" align="center" width="100%" valign="top">
<div>
<table class="100p" width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td class="100p" width="100%" align="left" valign="top">
<span width="26.09375%" style="width: 26.09375%; display: inline-block;">
<img id="ourStory" class="responsiveImage" src="http://am-samples.gear.host/images/bottom-our-story.png" border="0" style="display: block;" />
</span><span width="19.6875%" style="width: 19.6875%; display: inline-block;">
<img id="recipes" class="responsiveImage" src="http://am-samples.gear.host/images/bottom-recipes.png" border="0" style="display: block;" />
</span><span width="25.15625%" style="width: 25.15625%; display: inline-block;">
<img id="seafood" class="responsiveImage" src="http://am-samples.gear.host/images/bottom-seafood.png" border="0" style="display: block;" />
</span><span width="29.0625%" style="width: 29.0625%; display: inline-block;">
<img id="giftCards" class="responsiveImage" src="http://am-samples.gear.host/images/bottom-giftcards.png" border="0" style="display: block;" />
</span>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
CSS classes referenced
.responsiveImage {
max-width: 100% !important;
width: 100% !important;
height: auto !important;
border: none;
}
*[class="100p"] {
width: 100% !important;
height: auto !important;
}
I've stripped the code down to the essentials just to clearly present the issue. If you take a look at the source code, you'll see that the top and bottom black strips are just tables with a black background color. The red strip is actually made up of contiguous images. The original height of all the images is the same. Because of that I expected the height of all the images to scale equally. The table that contains the images has a background color of florescent green. That way, in Litmus, it is easy to see if the height of any of the images is different.
I've tested this solution in Litmus and it works fine on the email clients that I am interested in except two: iPhone 5S (iOS7 and iOS8). Here is a screenshot of the result in iPhone 5S and iOS7 (iOS 8 produces a similar result) : http://am-samples.gear.host/images/iPhone5S-iOS7-issue.jpg
So the problem is that when scaling, sometimes the image heights are not all equal. Any ideas on how to fix this on the iPhone 5S?
Different widths with the same height makes the images a different scale, which means that as they shrink through the 100% w x auto h, they will differ in height.
To retain consistent height/width through mobile I would make sure that the scale is identical. E.g. make all images 100px x 50px. (you can use percents here if you wish too)
The only other option I can really offer from what I see is a defined height to force each to that amount, but in HTML email, this is not likely to be followed by the email clients processors.
I am creating an email template to use in Pardot. I have coded the email up. It works fine in OSX Mail, Outlook 07 +, Opera Mail, however GMail is being a real pain. It is adding some weird height or something to the tr or td in my table.
Any suggestions?
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="228">
<tbody>
<tr valign="bottom">
<td valign="bottom"><span pardot-region=""><img src="widget_top.jpg" alt="Placeholder"></span></td>
</tr>
<tr bgcolor="#ffd13f">
<td style="padding: 10px;">
<h2><span pardot-region="">Subheading span across one or two lines for best practice:</span></h2>
<span pardot-region=""><p><b>Date:</b> Thursday 29 November</p>

</td>
</tr>
<tr valign="top">
<td valign="top"><span pardot-region=""><img src="widget_bottom.jpg" alt="Placeholder"></span></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
(this table is inside a set of tested tables).

Cheers :)
On the images you have to put (inline)
style="display:block;"
:)
display:block; is definitely needed. You probably should zero out everything in all img tags, and set width and heights also.
<img style="margin: 0; border: 0; padding: 0; display: block;" src="" width="600" height="150"
alt="">
Also, you don't need the spans inside the table cells. If you want to keep them, make sure they have margin and padding zero'd out there too.
I have the following table:
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" style="border-collapse:collapse">
<tr>
<td class="tr-l-t">
</td>
<td class="tr-t">
</td>
<td class="tr-r-t">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="tr-l">
</td>
<td class="control-panel">
</td>
<td class="tr-r">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="tr-l-b">
</td>
<td class="tr-b">
</td>
<td class="tr-r-b">
</td>
</tr>
...and CSS
.tr-l-t
{
background: url("../Images/tr_l_t.png") no-repeat;
width: 6px;
height: 6px;
}
.tr-l-b
{
background: url("../Images/tr_l_b.png") no-repeat;
width: 6px;
height: 6px;
}
.tr-r-t
{
background: url("../Images/tr_r_t.png") no-repeat;
width: 6px;
height: 6px;
}
.tr-r-b
{
background: url("../Images/tr_r_b.png") no-repeat;
width: 6px;
height: 6px;
}
.tr-t
{
background: transparent url("../Images/tr_t.png") repeat scroll 0 0;
height: 6px;
}
.tr-l
{
background: transparent url("../Images/tr_l.png") repeat scroll 0 0;
}
.tr-r
{
background: transparent url("../Images/tr_r.png") repeat scroll 0 0;
}
.tr-b
{
background: transparent url("../Images/tr_b.png") repeat scroll 0 0;
height: 6px;
}
.control-panel
{
background-color: #151515;
width: 300px;
height: 30px;
}
Both look good in IE7/8, FF, Chrome and Safari (Windows and Mac OS) browsers. However, in Safari for Ipod / Iphone / Ipad white stripes appear in between td tags. I've tried adding border:0 none, padding:0px, margin: 0px, but with no success.
Do you have any ideas on how to fix it?
margin-bottom: -2px; //on one of the TD elements
This worked for me, but in my case I was joining two TDs with a solid white color.
Not sure if this will be usable in every case.
Set the viewport using a meta tag in the template of the page. When the scale is at "1" the tables apear okay. When zooming in or out OR even setting the initial zoom anything other than 1, you get the gaps. That's what I'm working on at the moment.

I'm working on sending out an html based email, and every time it sends the image src tags and some of the anchor href tags are modified to be relative url's.
Update 2: This is happening between when the body of the email is generated and sent and when it arrives in my inbox.
Update: I am using Postfix on a LAMPP server. In addition, I am using Zend_Mail to send the emails out.
For example, I have a link:
src="http://www.furnituretrainingcompany.com/images/email/highpoint_2009_04/header.jpg"
And it gets rewritten as:
src="../../../../images/email/highpoint_2009_04/header.jpg"
What can cause this to occur and how is it corrected?

As it turned out, even though when I copied and pasted the content into the application the necessary DOCTYPE, html, and body tags were in place, TinyMCE was stripping those tags. Which explains why the output only showed the content within the body tag.
I was able to fix the url rewrite problem by ensuring that the DOCTYPE, html and body tags were actually all in place.
And I fixed TinyMCE by adding in the fullpage plugin so that it no longer strips those tags from the input.
There is a configuration option "convert_urls" which can be set to false to prevent URLs from being converted too.
Since #Noah are sending expected content as email. Their is no problem with TinyMCE.
Normally images are blocked by mail hosters.
In my case, I was sending html content(with image) to gmail account. Google blockes images in mails.
Google display the following in every email
Images are not displayed. Display images below - Always display
images from xxxx#xxxx.com
Just click on appropriate link to display images.
Thank You,
