    Infopath Email - need slight formatting changes.

    First off, thanks for hosting these Forums, I just found them and looking through the posts, there is allot of good info here! 

     

    I have written a form (InfoPath 2010) that we use to email a news letter.  However, the formatting is slightly off.  Is there an easy way to edit that HTML before it is sent?  (Also, gmail does not seem to handle InfoPath forms at all....you just get a stack of images and gobbly gook)

    Hi Adam,

    Thanks!

    You can switch to a separate view that uses calculated values in place of text fields which may make the formatting better. The other tip is to remove all cell padding from your tables.

    InfoPath emails WordML structure so it doesn't surprise me that Gmail doesn't grok it. Sorry about that.

    Thanks for the response!

     But I am looking at things like this: 

    1.  Removing the Underlines from Hyperlinks (easy if I can add some CSS).

    2.  It appears that (mostly on Mac Clients) that the text background for some text areas is a very light grey - I need to make sure that the background CSS is set to over-ride to white.

    Again, thank you so much for any help that you could provide!

    Hi Adam,

    While InfoPath is a standards based product, the browser doesn't support replacing all variants of the CSS in the XSLT.

    Sorry for the bad news,
