Here is the quick list of my tips for safe HTML email templates.



TIP #1: Create a <table> based layout no wider that 650px

TIP #2: Document Type should be HTML 4.01 and not XHTML

TIP #3: Make sure you use Meta tags for UTF-8 to comply with foreign languages (like Norwegian in my case)

TIP #4: CSS should be inside a <style> tag inside the <head> tag.

TIP #5: All images need to be accessible online somewhere and use absolute links (http://www.website.com/etc..), not relative links (./image.jpg)
