Cannot use HTML list in single-send email

resolver

Hi, 

 

I need to create a table with custom values sent through the single send email api.  I am using the contact properties as instructed here 

 

I am also sending the list as HTML as instructed here 

The issue is that no matter what I do, the HTML gets inserted into the email as HTML with all markup escaped.  How do I instruct the property insertion to not escape the HTML and render the table rows?  

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi @dcornelljames 

 

This is due to that in JSON (where the code is sent) all tags have been escaped with backlashes "\". You need to strip these backlashes from your code between the response and you printing it onto site. 

 

This is totally depending on the language you code in - but in PHP (which I use) the correct way to do it would be

$response = some_response_from_a_call. 

$html = stripslashes ($response);

 

If you do not code in PHP - please look up similar to stripslashes in your coding language. 

Json needs to be sent with backslash in order not to understand the content as content and not as code. Its a way of transporing your code in a safe way from one place - to the other.
