HTML Email Don’ts
Ever wondered if you had a quick guide of Dos and Don'ts for an
HTML based email newsletter. Here we have compiled one that
serves as a ready reckoner.

HTML Coding Dont’s

5.HTML should not contain any JavaScript or any other script embedded in it.
Some email clients do not support JavaScript, and others view it as a security
risk.
6.Avoid using CSS for positioning. The support is very limited and will, more than
likely, result in a broken layout for most of your recipients.
7.Avoid nested tables if possible. Some email clients, especially Lotus Notes and
Netscape Messenger, might not render them correctly.
8.Do not use canvas background images. Most email clients do not display
canvas background images. Background images for individual table cells are
generally acceptable but might not appear in some clients such as Lotus Notes.

HTML Email Don’ts
Ever wondered if you had a quick guide of Dos and Don'ts for an
HTML based email newsletter. Here we have compiled one that
serves as a ready reckoner.

HTML Coding Dont’s

5.Do not apply attributes to the <BODY> tag. Attributes placed in the <BODY>
tag are often flagged by spam filters and increase the likelihood of your message
getting bulked or blocked.
6.With multiple embedded images, which also might cause the email to be
blocked
7.Do not use EMBED tags.
8.Avoid embedding forms, such as surveys, into emails. Some email clients such
as Hotmail might not pass the data through to the collection point. Instead, link to
a Web form through which the recipient can complete the survey.
