I have generated an HTML code(complete with <html><body></body></html>
tags) as a String. Now I want to send this HTML code as HTML to mail. My code is as below.
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/html");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"[email protected]"});
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "I would like to buy the following");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, purchaseOrder());
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "sending mail"));
Where the purchaseOrder()
is the method which passes me the string having full HTML code. But though the GMail client opens on my Nexus1 but it has the String with all HTML tags and not the actual HTML view. I tried the following but got error. The GMail crashed.
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, purchaseOrder());
setType("text/plain"); emailIntent. putExtra(android. content. Intent.
This works for me:
final Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.setType("text/html");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, Html.fromHtml(body));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Email:"));
But I've notice that inline styles and image tags are being ignored...
For anyone else looking to do this, sending the email manually behind the scenes using android-javamailer works (I've done it):
Sending Emails without User Intervention (no intents) in Android
if i am not wrong what you were looking for was
Html.fromHtml()
e.g.
Html.fromHtml("<a href="www.google.com"> Google</a>");
this will make Google a hyperlink
This worked for me Intent.ACTION_SENDTO
and my code goes here:
String mailId="[email protected]";
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO,
Uri.fromParts("mailto",mailId, null));
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Subject text here");
// you can use simple text like this
// emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,"Body text here");
// or get fancy with HTML like this
emailIntent.putExtra(
Intent.EXTRA_TEXT,
Html.fromHtml(new StringBuilder()
.append("<p><b>Some Content</b></p>")
.append("<a>http://www.google.com</a>")
.append("<small><p>More content</p></small>")
.toString())
);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send email..."));
Try Below Code :
Intent sendIntent = new Intent();
sendIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,getResources().getString(R.string.email_subject));
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, Html.fromHtml(getResources().getString(R.string.email_text)));
sendIntent.setType("text/plain");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "email"));
