texte = Apparently WebMerchant and WebCatalog don't have the same powers over e-mail. I was using the same formatting techniques that are found in the Thank You for Ordering! template (ThankYou.txt in the General Store) for the fulfillment, accounting, and order confirmation e-mails. Unfortunately, the last 3 mentioned come out looking like CR*P. None of the [format 20s] type tags worked as in the ThankYou.txt example.Apparently the e-mailing feature set hasn't been passed over to WebMerchant yet, I'm losing my mind (which can't be, it's only Tuesday - I only lose my mind on Friday around 3pm), or there's some magic that I can't figure out.The part of the example I'm talking about is:[lineItems][format 20s][sku][/format] [format 40s][textA][/format] [format 3s][quantity][/format] [format 10.2f][price][/format][/lineItems]All of the [format xxx] and [/format] comes out as exactly that in the e-mail. So, am I a. crazy, b. waiting for WebMerchant to have these powers, or c. stupid?(For what it's worth, I thought I'd send a message or two about this, but searching the archives came up with nothing...)Dan Keldsen - djk@delphigroup.comDirector, I.S. - webmaster@delphigroup.comDelphi Consulting Group, Inc. - http://www.delphigroup.com/100 City Hall Plaza - ph: 617-247-1511Boston, MA 02108-2106 - fax:617-247-4957
