Hotmail Frame of Shame
Posted: Sat Feb 08, 2003 1:58 pm
Hi Php's
When an e-mailed link in a hotmail message is followed, hotmail opens a new window with its own title and banner frame. Direct links to my site now have no title bar unless the page is redirected manually with a <a href... Target='_top'>.
Does anyone have any ideas how to force an <a href in a hotmail recieved email to break out of the hotmail banner framed window?
I tried...
They do attach anew part to your URL...
http://64.4.36.250/cgi-bin/linkrd?_lang ... ___action=
http%3a%2f%2fwww%2eany_site%2ecom%2fany_page%2ephp%3ftarget%3d_top
This kind of forced advertising really ticks me off.
I'm tring to link to an internal page where there is nothing
identifing the site except the title bar.
Any ideas at all would be most appreciated.
Thanks

Code: Select all
if($a===TRUE){
$sender="name";
$sender_email="any.com";
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "From: $sender <$sender_email>\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: <$sender_email>\n";
$headers .= "X-Sender: <$sender_email>\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP4\n"; //mailer
$headers .= "X-Priority: 3\n"; //1 UrgentMessage, 3 Normal
$headers .= "Return-Path: <$sender_email>\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n";
//this dosent do the trick
$body=<a href='http://www.any_site.com/any_page.php?target=_top' target='_top'>click here</a>
mail($receiver_Email,"E-mail Confirmed", "$body", "$headers");
