email notes newsletters2
Whether you choose to code your HTML email by hand (my personal preference) or to use an existing template, there are two fundamental concepts to keep in mind when creating HTML email:
- Use HTML tables to control the design layout and some presentation. You may be used to using pure CSS layouts for your web pages, but that approach just won’t hold up in an email environment.
- Use inline CSS to control other presentation elements within your email, such as background colors and fonts.
The quickest and easiest way to see how HTML tables and inline CSS interact within an HTML email is to download some templates from Campaign Monitor and MailChimp. When you open up one of these templates, you’ll notice a few things that we’ll discuss in more detail later:
- CSS style declarations appear below the
bodytag, not between theheadtags. - No CSS shorthand is used: instead of using the abbreviated style rule
font: 12px/16px Arial, Helvetica, you should instead break this shorthand into its individual properties:font-family,font-size, andline-height. spans anddivs are used sparingly to achieve specific effects, while HTML tables do the bulk of the layout work.- CSS style declarations are very basic, and do not make use of any CSS.
Step 1: Use HTML Tables for Layout
That’s right: tables are back, big time! Web standards may have become the norm for coding pages for display in web browsers, but this isn’t the Web, baby. Mail clients are light years behind the eight-ball in terms of CSS support, which means that we must resort to using tables for layout if we really want our newsletters to display consistently for every reader (see the reading list at the end of this article for some excellent resources on CSS support in mail clients).
So put your standards-compliant best practices and lean markup skills aside: we’re about to get our hands dirty!
The first step in creating an HTML email is to decide what kind of layout you want to use. For newsletters, single column and two-column layouts work best, because they control the natural chaos that results when a large amount of content is pushed into such a small space as an email.
A single-column layout typically consists of:
- a header, containing a logo and some (or all) of the navigation links from the parent web site to reinforce the branding and provide familiarity for site visitors
- intra-email links to stories that appear further down in the email
- a footer at the bottom of the email, which often contains links that are identical to the top navigation, as well as instructions for unsubscribing
Two-column emails also use a header and footer. Like a two-column web page, they typically use a narrow, side column to house features and links to more information, while the wider column holds the body content of the email.
Promotional emails follow similar rules but contain much less in the way of content and links. They often include one or two messages, and sometimes make use of one big image with small explanatory text and some links below the image.
All of these email layout possibilities can be created easily, using HTML tables to divide up the space into rows and columns. In fact, using HTML tables is the only way to achieve a layout that will render consistently across different mail clients.
No matter how your email is designed, it’s important to remember that the most important content should appear at or near the top of the email, so it is visible immediately when a reader opens your email. The top left of an email message is often the first place people look when they open an email.
Rules i looked up
Rule 1: Validate your document
Validate your documents so that they validate in Firefox using the HTML Validator. You can download the HTML Validator from the Firefox add-on site. The only error that you should have is a missing doc-type. We do not need the doc-type because emails will be sent from deployment tools and are not strictly one doc-type or another on arrival. Also often the BODY, HTML and HEAD tags are removed before the deployment.
Rule 2: Treat the outer table as the BODY
Build your page inside a table with a background color if needed and with 100% width on it, this is then treated like the BODY of the document.
Rule 3: Remove PADDING, BORDER and MARGIN on all tables
Most web-based clients use CSS and this can remove padding, borders and margin and there for the email can not have layout which relies on margin and padding, instead use table cells with fix widths and heights to display where your content sits.
Rule 4: Avoid tags which may have line-height applied to them by the client
Avoid using the P and the BR tags as differences in line-height will cause your email to brake and appear differently from client to client. Instead use tables and cells with fix widths and height to pad out your content and create paragraphs and margins.
Rule 5: Use a mixture of HTML and CSS to format copy and links
When formatting copy, links and fonts use a mixture of HTML and CSS as follows. The reason I do this is because of an inconsistency with the way clients underline links. In the past I have had issues with clients removing the underline, adding the underline and very odd double underlined links.
Rule 6: Add display:block to all Images
For some reason I have had weird behavior in Windows Live / Hotmail pushing images up or down a few pixels when displaying emails, after hours of messing about display:block fixes this problem. This is obviously something to do with the CSS applied to the email content by Hotmail as the page is rendered to screen.
Rule 7: Make sure all images have the height and width set
Make sure all images have the correct height and width set as Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007 displays an alt message before downloading the images which reads “Right-click here to download pictures. To help protect your privacy, Outlook prevented automatic download of this picture from the internet.” This alt message will cause your images to grow and push your design out of shape. You still need your email to look neat before the images are downloaded.
Rule 8: Avoid in blank table cells
Simple, its not needed and shouldn’t be used for anything other than stopping words from widowing on to the next line.
Rule 9: Encapsulate images inside the TD tag
If you have images inside TD tags, make sure you delete the white-space around them. Some clients will turn this whitespace into a new-line or a and just generally do weird things which can break your design.
Rule 10: Align images using valign=top and valign=bottom
Sometimes table cells are pushed higher because of whitespace and line-height often by specifically telling the image to sit at the top or the bottom of the cell you can fix this problem. Failing that make your image dimensions higher than 20px where possible.
Rule 11: Specifically set all widths on the TD tag and do your maths homework!
If a TABLE has a set width make sure that each TD inside that TABLE has a width set on it. Make sure that all the TD widths actually add up to the combined number of the width of the TABLE.
Rule 12: Don’t use background images or animated GIF’s
Outlook 2007 doesn’t support either, if you do wish to use an animated GIF make sure the message of your email is present in the first frame of the animation. Outlook 2007 will only display the first frame of the GIF.
Make sure you test your page in all your chosen enviroments
Load up your browsers and get testing. An easy way to deploy an email is to open up Internet Explorer 7 and go to “File > Send > Page by Email…” this allows you to email the entire document to your chosen client environment. A final test will need to be done just to make sure that the page doesn’t break once its processed by the deployment tool.
Thats a Wrap
