Tcl

Create MIME Containing HTML

Calls SetBodyFromHtml to load HTML into the MIME body. Also sets the Content-Type header to "text/html", and the Content-Transfer-Encoding to an appropriate transfer encoding based on the characters found in the HTML.

set mime [new_CkMime]

# Add a few header fields:
set success [CkMime_AddHeaderField $mime "Description" "this is a test"]
set success [CkMime_AddHeaderField $mime "MyId" "123"]

set htmlDoc "<html><body>Test</body></html>"

# Set the MIME body via SetBodyFromHtml.  This also
# has the intended side-effect of adding the Content-Type
# and Content-Transfer-Encoding headers.
set success [CkMime_SetBodyFromHtml $mime $htmlDoc]

puts [CkMime_getMime $mime]

# The MIME should look like this:

# Description: this is a test
# MyId: 123
# Content-Type: text/html; 
# Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
# 
# <html><body>Test</body></html>

# Note: The Content-Transfer-Encoding may be changed.
# For example, to use "base64", do this:
CkMime_put_Encoding $mime "base64"

# Show the MIME again, this time using the base64 
# transfer encoding:
puts [CkMime_getMime $mime]

# It should look like this:

# Description: this is a test
# MyId: 123
# Content-Type: text/html; 
# Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
