I have a simple HTML page that displays a 3D Google Chart, it renders fine in a Browser, but when I send the same HTML page (e.g. source code) and set it as the body of an email.  Outlook won't render the chart.

When I view the source from the outlook email and copy it and save it as an HTML file, I can open that file and it renders fine in a Browser.  I suspect outlook's render can't render it for some reason.

I was wondering if anyone knows of a workaround or a way to get Google charts to render inside of Outlook?

Attached is the HTML file...

Thanks!

Hi,
I'm a beginner in this forum and as I beginner I'll answer you:
I'm quite sure that's simply because mail client will not execute the javascript necessary to draw the chart

Outlook is a pain. I believe it strips out the code for anything more than very basic HTML. It also seems to be stripped from attachments.
