PHPRunner General questions

Hi All,
I have been looking into using the HTML mail function of Phprunner, I notice this appears to be a difficult task for someone who is not code minded, examples include:

http://www.asprunner.com/forums/topic/19089-sending-templated-email-messages/

http://www.asprunner.com/forums/topic/19506-send-html-formatted-email/
The Phprunner manual indicates the following:
Send HTML email:

$email="test@test.com";
$message="Hello there\n<b>Best regards</b>";
$subject="Sample subject";
runner_mail(array('to' => $email, 'subject' => $subject,
'htmlbody' => $message, 'charset' => 'UTF-8'));



This simply sends an email without the new form data, am I missing something in the above code sample if I want it to include new form data in beautifully displayed HTML format?
Please help.

Hi Christian,
Thank you very much for your reply.
Can you please confirm this will be HTML formatted?
Thanks,
Brendan

No, it will be a simple text mail. Check this article for HTML: http://css-tricks.com/sending-nice-html-email-with-php/

It does the same job that example Cristian suggested by you need to write less code.
