Formatting mail node text

[francis1970]

Hi all,
I'm looking for a little advice:
Question #1
how can I use some basic formatting in my mail nodes (at least line feeds and tabs) ?

I have tried with \n and \t but it yields nothing.....

<mail-node name="MailNotify"
to='#{mailActor}'
subject='You have a new CR N.#{idAnomalia}
text='In charge to :#{developer} \n
Description: #{textCR}

</mail-node>

#Question2 anybody managed to send e-mail in HTML format ???
Thanks a lot
Francesco

question 1: I have no idea. sorry.
question 2: jbpm does not support html mail (yet) but some have made it work by customizing the mail class

thanks for your reply
Well I have found a way to use at least line feeds.
I have used CDATA to inside the fields. So I get a line feed.

If anybody can shed some light about using HTML mails it would be great

<mail-node name="MailAssegnazione" to='#{mailActor}'
 subject='Anomalia N.#{idAnomalia}>
 <text>
 <![CDATA[
In Charge to: #{manager}
Text: #{textCR}'
 ]]>.
 </text>
 <transition to="Assegnata"></transition>
</mail-node>

1: Hmm... CDATA, I should have known... sorry...

2: html mail has been discussed in the form, you currently have to write your own implementation of the mail node (or adapt the existing one) so it uses MIME.
