newsletter

I am trying to create a news letter to go out that will have an image animate when someone hovers over it. they are suppose to find the correct decoration in the email to click to win the prize so when they hover over them 1 will dance. I have it working just fine in basic html for web browsers, the code I am using is a css background so the upper half of the gif is still and the lower half does the moving and it appears when they mouse over it. In emails css backgrounds dont really work for everyone. a.cssmouseover { display:block; width:95px; height:107px; background-image:url('url/moving

I am doing a newsletter Management in php. I need to track the visitors who opens our newsletter, I have inserted the tracking image in newsletter thats seems to work little. Using Shift mailer there is option to embed an inline image to newsletter. Is it possible to track using this inline image? Is there any other techniques for tracking email.

I am trying to write a newsletter but I am having trouble hiding the responsive contents when I test on GMail .

I have created an email template that is tested to work properly on desktop clients like gmail/yahoo/outlook and also tested correct responsive behavior on mobile gmail app. I am using Android/Galaxy S4. The responsive styles are not effective on yahoo mobile app. Infact, it is not reading the CSS rules from 'style'. Though, desktop chrome set to mobile views (using Inspect -> toggle device toolbar) and logging in to yahoo mail shows the email reading the responsive styles. Question: Does yahoo mobile app not support responsiveness? Or, does it particularly need additional hacks? Update: I

I want to write a newsletter with php. but i have a question: how can i generate a code for unsubscribe. In fact i want a unique code for each subscriber. for example in ' http://net.tutsplus.com/ ' you can see something like this:' http://tutsplus.us1.list-manage.com/profile?u=0154weg635df2fdwied2541cbed&id=c5652sdfre7&e=8758563dfgde '. and another question is that this code should be saved in data base or no?(because i think if it's unique for each person, it's not necessary to generate every time whiling send newsletters). any idea?

I read somewhere that when creating a HTML email, you should use the table-based layout. You should not care about creating tableless css based layout. Is that true? I have to create a newsletter layout for my company, but I dont feel confortable writing 3 nested tables. If you want your HTML-email to look good in most email clients, you should write your HTML as it still was 1999 :) I'd highly recommend paying a visit to the Email Standards Project website. It lists almost every major email client (both standalone and web-based) on the market and outlines how much HTML support is built into
