Early last year I read that because the latest version of Outlook (2007) had switched from using the IE rendering engine to display html e-mail to instead using the (lame) Word rendering engine, it's best to keep using table-based layouts for html e-mail. The article listed some of the shortcomings of the Word rendering, but my question is, if I don't *have* Outlook, is there a way to actually test the Word rendering?
I see in Word there is an "Open Web Page..." menu option, but when I try this, Word quits. At least on two different Macs in our shop it did. Does this function actually work for anyone?
Or, if someone out there uses Outlook 2007 for mail, can I send you a test file, and you can tell me how badly it falls apart, before I rebuild this puppy in tables?
Thanks,
Keith
