Newsletter mailed to you. Let me know if you have any luck figuring out what's wrong with the CSS.
After running the query, the correct date shows up. Am I going to have to run that query every time I create a new issue? |

In the newsletter you sent, the links are green, and when hovered over, the links are black. Looking at the HTML source for one of the links shows the following:
Code:
<a target="_blank" href="http://www.xxxxxxxxxxx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=106101"><strong>xxxxxxxxxxx Promo Code at Good Old Games!</strong></a> Code:
<a style="a:link, a:visited {text-decoration:none;} a:hover, a:active {text-decoration:underline;} href="whatever">link</a>

So there's no other way to fix the link issue without editing templates and adding span tags to every link? That seems like it's going to be a major annoyance for me when I upgrade (assuming there are template changes) and when I add or change links in each block.
And on the date issue, I'm still not clear on whether or not I'm going to have to run that SQL query every time I create a new newsletter. Can you confirm this one way or another? Thanks! |

Most, if not all, email readers have their own pseudo class CSS for links. If you want to override the color of the link, you would need to try SPAN or you could try using an important declaration but there is no guarantee that the email reader will recognize that due to reasons listed here. As to the date, it is not clear to me why you got zero instead of TIMENOW, even after looking through the code, so I cannot say whether it will happen again. If it does, just let me know.

I am having the same problem with blue text, and I have a green background... to match the forum.
My major problem is, I am not a code person, so need to find a simple way or have a simple explanation of what you need to do with span.. Can anyone help with this.. |

In the gaz_html_thread template, you would find this:
Code:
$databit[title] Code:
<span style="color: #000000;">$databit[title]</span> You can do the same sort of thing for the other templates listed in post twelve.

Sorry to be a total pain, but where do I find
* gaz_html_thread * gaz_html_thread_simple * gaz_html_thread_info I have been looking everywhere for these items and can't find them... Maybe this is a good indication that maybe I shouldn't touch... |

Made the changes, and all looks fine in preview etc with white text on green background, but when sent by email and picked up by email client, it is still black text with links in Blue...
So I must have done something wrong.. I replaced this$databit[title] with this <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">$databit[title]</span> http://forum.landrovernet.com/newsle...p?id=17&prev=1 I am using the style of the forum if that makes any sense... |
