Subject: HTML Emails
Hi

I have developed a web based support system for my company's clients.
It works via email by sending requests for support to the relevant
people. The emails are always in HTML format. I have always previously
used Outlook express to read the emails and it worked fine. However
just recently i have changed to Outlook, now when i try and click a
button contained in my emails (see code below) it doesn't do anything.
I know i can work around this problem by using links instead of
buttons but i have become quiet fond of my HTML coloured buttons.

Here is the code i use:

<form method="post" action="MYURL" id="frm01" name="frm01">
<input id="btn01" Name="btn01" type="submit" value="My Button"
style="color: 'White'; background-color: 'Black'; font-size: '9pt';
border-color: 'Yello'"">
</form>

Does any one know why this is happening?

ML

Try a Microsoft application support newsgroup.
