Red face HTML Newsletter Issues!
Hi
Im building an HTML newsletter for my company and am having issues regarding appearance cross email browsers.
The rough draft of it can be found at http://agony.phenominet.com/news.htm.
Cross browser my background disappears and my links are turning blue.
I was also looking for information regarding the best means of distributing the newsletter once its completed.
Thank you so much for any help you can offer!

It seems you are using a table. I would prefer to have it centered. My screen resolution is 1024x768 and it looks like too much on left.

I use Mozila Firefox and links appear perfectly well on my screen (black, bold, underlined)

yahoo and hotmail are not browsers!!

Anyway, yahoo and hotmail manipulate the formatting (and disable Javascript, I guess). If you want the users to see the page as it is, you can provide a link in the email to the newsletter page made on your site.

If you want to send the full page by email, I guess, you don't have too many options and have to live with what yahoo, hotmail, etc does to your formatting.
