cfmailparam 301
Usage
This tag attaches a file or adds a header to an e-mail message. It can only be used in the
cfmail
tag. You can use multiple
cfmailparam
tags within a
cfmail
tag.
You can use this tag to include a file, such as an image, in an HTML mail message. The file can be
displayed inline in an HTML message, or as an attachment. To include multiple files, use
multiple
cfmailparam
tags.
To display a file inline in a mail message:
1.
Specify
type="html"
in the
cfmail
tag.
2.
Specify
disposition="inline"
and a
ContentID
attribute in the
cfmailparam
tag.
3.
Use a
src="cid:
ContentIDValue " attribute to identify the content to include in the HTML tag
such as the
img
tag.
The second example shows this use.
